Build a Grade Book App - Step 16

JavaScript
1

I can’t for the life of me get step 16 to pass. The test runner keeps saying “A” is not passing true.
Link to the project = https://www.freecodecamp.org/learn/full-stack-developer/lab-gradebook-app/build-a-gradebook-app

Any help would be appreciated.

Here is my code:

function getAverage(testScores) {
  let total = 0;
  if (testScores.length === 0) return "No test score provided";
  return testScores.reduce((sum, score) => sum + score, 0) / testScores.length;
}
//console.log(getAverage([92, 88, 12, 77, 57, 100, 67, 38, 97, 89]));

function getGrade(studentScore) {
  if (studentScore === 100) return "A+";
  if (studentScore >= 90) return "A";
  if (studentScore >= 80) return "B";
  if (studentScore >= 70) return "C";
  if (studentScore >= 60) return "D";
  if (studentScore >= 0) return "F";
  return "error";
}
console.log(getGrade(99));

function hasPassingGrade(score) {
  return score === "A+" ||score === "A" || score === "B" || score === "C"
}
console.log(hasPassingGrade(getGrade()));

function studentMsg(scores, studentScore) {
  let averageScore = getAverage(scores);
  //console.log(averageScore);
  let letterGrade = getGrade(studentScore);
//console.log (letterGrade);

if (["A+", "A", "B", "C"].includes(letterGrade)) {
  return `Class average: ${averageScore}. Your grade: ${letterGrade}. You passed the course.`;
}
return `Class average: ${averageScore}. Your grade: ${letterGrade}. You failed the course.`;

}
//console.log(studentMsg([92, 88, 12, 77, 57, 100, 67, 38, 97, 89], 37))

Sure, I added it to the original post i made.

Thanks for the assist!

Look at the way you’re writing the “if else” statement. I think your syntax might be a bit off.

Sorry, Can you specify which If/else?
I don’t have any else statements as all my Ifs since once the condition is met the code auto exits.
So i didn’t think i had to add else statments.

Thanks for the help!

I see what you mean! That went completely over my head. Thanks for clarifying that.

The hasPassingGrade function should use the getGrade function to get the letter grade,

Look at what you are passing to that function, with console.log(score) inside the function.
