Tell us what’s happening:

Hi community. All tests are passing, except the one that asks me to use recursion to solve the problem. From my understanding, recursion is being used, right? Is the lab bugged or does it expect another solution?

Your code so far

const countdown = n => {
    let countArray = [];
    if(n < 1){
        return [];
    } else{
        countArray = countdown(n-1)
        countArray.unshift(n);
        return countArray;
    }
}
console.log(countdown(4));

looks like a bug. They want you to use a function declaration instead of an arrow function. So it should pass when you switch it.

I’ll open a github issue for it
