Tell us what’s happening:
Can anyone explain why this approach doesn’t work? My code meets all the conditions outlined in the challenge. And testing using console.log out confirms that. But it still doesn’t allow me to complete this challenge?

Your code so far


function repeatStringNumTimes(str, num) {

if (num<= 0){ return " "}


else return `${str}${repeatStringNumTimes(str, num - 1)}`;
}

console.log(repeatStringNumTimes("abc", 4))

that’s called template literal, it is not an error

try to print your output, and use the browser console, which let you see it better

You’re placing a space at the end of your return.
Just remove the space on the end, like so: if (num<= 0){ return “”}
