function cc(card) {
  // Only change code below this line
  switch(card) {
    case 2:
    case 3:
    case 4:
    case 5:
    case 6:
      count++;
    break;
    case 10:
    case "J":
    case "Q":
    case "K":

I’ve edited your code 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 (').

@augustofaggion

return count + + "Bet";

What does this part do?

Thank you, that is my first time posting on the Forum, next time i will do better, Thank you

[augustofaggion]

should return the value of count plus the “String” of “Bet” if the number is bigger than 0

[JeremyLT]

But you have two + signs in there. What does that do?

[augustofaggion]

add a number between then as an increment, but now i understand my mistake . Thank you very much for you help
