Build a Music Player - Step 35

Curriculum Help

Tell us what’s happening:

I’m rather confused. The test error message says “You should add an if statement that checks if userData.currentSong === null and stops the function execution with a return statement inside your playPreviousSong function.” From my understanding that’s exactly what I am doing. Is there a spelling error or something I’m misunderstanding/overlooking?

Your code so far

<!-- file: index.html -->


/* file: styles.css */


/* file: script.js */
// User Editable Region
  if(userData.currentSong === null){
    return;
  }
// User Editable Region

Thank you, that worked! Is there any reason why it wouldn’t work without? Is it just a specific requirement of the test?

it was a development oversight, the test was recently updated (but it is not yet deployed) to accept both versions
