  return arr[randomIndex];
}

const randomQuestion = getRandomQuestion(questions);

const getRandomComputerChoice = (arr) => {
  const randomIndex = Math.floor(Math.random() * arr.length);
  return arr[randomIndex];
};

const finalQuestion = randomQuestion.question;
const finalCompChoice = getRandomComputerChoice(randomQuestion.choices)

const getResults = (finalQuestion, finalChoice) => {
  if (finalChoice === randomQuestion.answer) {
    return `The computer's choice is correct!`
  } else {
    return `The computer's choice is wrong. The correct answer is: ${randomQuestion.answer}`
  }
}
const result = getResults(finalQuestion, finalCompChoice);

console.log(finalQuestion);

Welcome to the forum @nicholauswild

Syntax highlighting is showing you are not using the first parameter.

Happy coding

I changed that but the same tests are still failing.

const getResults = (finalQuestion, finalChoice) => {
  console.log(finalQuestion);
  console.log(finalCompChoice);
  if (finalChoice === randomQuestion.answer) {
    return `The computer's choice is correct!`
  } else {
    return `The computer's choice is wrong. The correct answer is: ${randomQuestion.answer}`
  }
}
const result = getResults(finalQuestion, finalCompChoice);


console.log(result);

console.log() does not count as “using” it.

Why is it a parameter? Presumably you need it for something

Thank you. that helped a lot and i was on the verge of quitting. hahaha
