Golf Score - Again

JavaScript
1

I can’t understand what I’m doing wrong here. Please help.

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

// Only change code above this line
}

console.log(golfScore(4, 3));

This is at least one problem. = is not == is not ===. You should use === for comparisons.

par++ is not equal to par + 1, this is changing par and doing the same check as strokes == par at the same time
