Your code has a bug - you use global variables.
Your code contains global variables that are changed each time the function is run. This means that after each test completes, subsequent tests start with the previous value. To fix this, make sure your function doesn’t change any global variables, and declare/assign variables within the function if they need to be changed.
Example:
var myGlobal = [1];
function returnGlobal(arg) {
myGlobal.push(arg);
return myGlobal;
} // unreliable - array gets longer each time the function is run
function returnLocal(arg) {
var myLocal = [1];
myLocal.push(arg);
return myLocal;
} // reliable - always returns an array of length 2
I’ve edited your post for readability. When you enter a code block into a forum post, please precede it with a separate line of three backticks and follow it with a separate line of three backticks to make it easier to read.
You can also use the “preformatted text” tool in the editor (</>
) to add backticks around text.
See this post to find the backtick on your keyboard.
Note: Backticks (`) are not single quotes (’).
