Could you break down the solution

Tell us what’s happening:

Hello I’ve solved the problem, but essentially don’t understand the problem what its asking or how this method works. Could someone explain it in detail for me please!

Your code so far


function checkObj(obj, checkProp) {
// Only change code below this line
var myObj = {

  gift: "pony",
  pet: "kitten",
  bed: "sleigh",
  city: "Seattle"
}

if (myObj.hasOwnProperty(checkProp)) {
return myObj[checkProp];
} else
return "Not Found";


// Only change code above this line
}
console.log(checkObj())

Challenge: Testing Objects for Properties

Link to the challenge:

You should not be declaring this extraneous variable myObj in the middle of the function. I would look at the challenge description again. You are supposed to check obj for checkProp.
