Golf Code stuck

JavaScript

Tell us what’s happening:
When I run my function, some answers return the expected phrase, but par, bogie and double bogie do not. I’ve tried rearranging my statements, but then the remaining opposite ones (hole in one, eagle and birdie) are false and the ones above are true. No matter how I craft it, par is always false.

Your code so far


var names = ["Hole-in-one!", "Eagle", "Birdie", "Par", "Bogey", "Double Bogey", "Go Home!"];
function golfScore(par, strokes) {
 // Only change code below this line

if (strokes == 1) {
 return names[0];
}
else if (strokes <= par - 2) {
 return names[1];
}
else if (strokes = par - 1) {
 return names[2];
}
else if (par = strokes) {
 return names[3];
}
else if (strokes = par + 1){
return names[4];
}
else if (strokes = par + 2) {
 return names[5];
}
else if (strokes >= par + 3) {
 return names[6];
 }

 // Only change code above this line
}

golfScore(5, 4);

Welcome, zeeathome.

Remember: This is the assignment operator: =
This is the equality operator: ==
