Tell us what’s happening:

I do not understand what I am doing wrong here and cannot find a solution

Your code so far

console.log("Hi there!");

const botName = "teacherBot";

const greeting = `My name is ${botName}.`;
console.log(greeting);

const subject = "JavaScript";
const topic = "strings";

const sentence = `Today, you will learn about ${topic} in ${subject}.`;
console.log(sentence);

const strLengthIntro = `Here is an example of using the length property on the word ${subject}.`;
console.log(strLengthIntro);

console.log(subject.length);

console.log(`Here is an example of using the length property on the word ${topic}.`);
console.log(topic.length);

console.log(`Here is an example of accessing the first letter in the word ${subject}.`);

console.log(subject[0]);

console.log(`Here is an example of accessing the second letter in the word ${subject}.`);
console.log(subject[1]);
console.log(`Here is an example of accessing the last letter in the word ${subject}.`);
let lastCharacter = "subject.length - 1]
console.log(lastCharacter)

hello @ACS welcome to the forum!

The opening bracket [ got replaced by a " here, see? Please correct it.

The [subject.length - 1] part is actually the index here, right? And you have to assign the character present in this index of the subject string to the lastCharacter variable. So how do we access the character from a string with a given index? You have already done it here –

It doesn’t look like you have made any changes to your code to take into consideration the help that @sampatee provided.
