};

function checkObj(obj, checkProp) {
 // Only change code below this line
 if(obj === myObj){
   return "Not Found";

@djuliobusinessmail

if(obj === myObj){
   return "Not Found";
 }

You shouldn’t have myObj in this code at all. Only obj.

@JeremyLT
after i changed it, it still doesn’t work

if (obj){
return "Not Found";
}

[JeremyLT]

Why do you have this if clause?

If there is an obj, then return Not Found?

[djuliobusinessmail]

its because of the challenge ask for this :

checkObj({pet: "kitten", bed: "sleigh"}, "gift") should return the string Not Found .

so i created strict if conditions if one of the keys/ properties doesn’t exist in the object

[JeremyLT]

But that if statement checks if obj exists, not if obj has the checkProp

[djuliobusinessmail]

Thanks a lot, i understand the logic now
i changed it to this

if(!(obj[checkProp])){
    return "Not Found";
  }

Did you find the solution to this problem? Nothing seems to be working.
