Use it to look up val and assign the associated string to the result variable.

Your code so far


// Setup

var result = "";

// Only change code below this line
 var lookup = {
  "alpha": "Adams",
  "bravo": "Boston",
  "charlie": "Chicago",
  "delta": "Denver",
  "echo": "Easy",
  "foxtrot": "Frank"

Thanks that helped you don’'t need to read this any further or reply;
But this is how I got the answer after your help

There is only one function in the code: phoneticLookup
but, that was not what i was asked to do

So i reared the text and set it like this .
2: Use it to look up val : in the example they gave an answer to ti

alpha[2];

2: assign the associated string to the result variable.
using result this can be done if we set it to the above the code
