Declare a Read-Only Variable with the const Keyword - unexpected character

JavaScript
1

Tell us what’s happening:

Not passing test [console.log should be changed to print the SENTENCE variable] and unexpected token ? is being returned

Your code so far
function printManyTimes(str) {
“use strict”;

// change code below this line

const SENTENCE = str + " is cool!";
for(let i = 0; i < str.length; i+=2) {
console.log(SENTENCE);
}

// change code above this line

}
printManyTimes(“freeCodeCamp”);


function printManyTimes(str) {
  "usconsole.log(SENTENCE);
  // change code below this line
console.log(SENTENCE);
  const SENTENCE = str + " is cool!";
  for(let i = 0; i < str.length; i+=2) {
    console.log(SENTENCE);
  }
console.log(SENTENCE);
  // change code above this line
console.log(SENTENCE);
}
printManyTimes("freeCodeCamp");
