Tell us what’s happening:

No matter what I do, I cannot pass this lesson. It seems that requirements 8, 10, & 11 have certain requirements that are not made known.

Your code so far

console.log("Hello! I'm your coding fun fact guide!")

let botName;
let botLocation;
let favoriteLanguage;

botName = "Carl";
botLocation = "Mars";
favoriteLanguage = "JavaScript";

const botIntroduction = "My name is " + botName + " and I live on " + botLocation + ".";
console.log(botIntroduction);

const botCodingLanguage = "My favorite programming language is " + favoriteLanguage + ".";
console.log(botCodingLanguage);

let codingFact;
codingFact = favoriteLanguage + " is not actually about coffee handwriting";
console.log(codingFact);

codingFact = favoriteLanguage + " was created by Brendan Eich in just 10 days";
console.log(codingFact);

codingFact = favoriteLanguage + " is used worldwide by thousands of developers";
console.log(codingFact);

console.log("It was fun sharing these facts with you. Goodbye! - " + botName + " from " + botLocation + ".")

I did see that after I posted this help thread. However even after applying the workarounds in similar forums for this issue, Task #8 will still not pass with the suggested workarounds of the bug. See attached photo for reference. I have OCD so the sooner I can get this lab finally checked off the better :joy:

initialize the variable, please. Do not declare it and give it a value later.

This effort still didn’t result in a solution

It seems there was not a deplyment yet so you need to start the concatenations to give a value to codingFact with a literal tring and not favoriteLanguage

Thank you for notifying me, this solution finally worked and I was able to complete. I tried this recommendation a few days ago, and this did not work. So it seems they are working slowly towards fixing the issue.
