you can always share the code you have written and describe what you are struggling with to get help

here it is

function pyramid(str, num, bool) {
  let row = ''
  for(let i = 0; i < num; i++) {
    row += '\n'
    if(!bool) {
      for(let k = 0; k < num - i; k++) {
        row += ' ' 
      }

    } else {
      for(let k = num ; k > num - i - 1; k--) {
        row += ' '
      }

    }
    if(!bool) {
      for(let j = 0; j < 2 * i + 1; j++) {
        row += str
      }
    } else {
      for(let j = 2 * num - 2; j > 2 * i - 1; j--) {
        row += str
      }


    }
  }
  return row
}
console.log(JSON.stringify(pyramid('p', 5, true)))  
console.log(pyramid('p', 5, true))

can you also describe what you are struggling with?

24

i did not pass the tests 3 and 4 because of i miss the trailing new lines

25

a trailing new line is easy to add, but that’s not your only issue

you can change your console.log at the end to this so you can confront your actual output with the expected one:

console.log(JSON.stringify(pyramid('p', 5, true)))  
console.log(JSON.stringify("\nppppppppp\n ppppppp\n  ppppp\n   ppp\n    p\n"))
