Describe your issue in detail here.

  **Your code so far**

What happens when val = 2?

I’ve try but to get ```
orderMyLogic(4)


should return the string

Less than 5

What does it return now? Can you look at your code and figure out that?

function orderMyLogic(val) {

  if (val < 10) {

    return "Less than 10";

  } else if (val < 5){

    return "Less than 5";

  } else {

    return "Greater than or equal to 10";

  }

}

orderMyLogic(4);

orderMyLogic(4)


should return the string

Less than 5

Let’s walk through your current code.

If val is 4 then this condition is true.

The function will return “Less than 10”
After that return statement we exit the function.

The problem is, this condition is also true.

Because 4 is less than 5.
But the computer is not going to execute that condition.

The lesson is trying to teach the importance of ordering your conditions.

You need to switch the order of two of the conditions so the logic makes sense.

Hope that helps!
