I can not understand why this code is failing the run test?

JavaScript

Hello
I need my console to look like this "
I am a “double quoted” string inside “double quotes”.

But it looks like this : myStr = “I am a “double quoted” string inside “doubled quotes”.” I need to get rid of the last " so it just has a full stop but I can’t understand what is wrong with the code ?

Many thanks in advance.

Your code so far


const myStr = "I am a \"double quoted\" string inside \"doubled quotes\".";

What did you change? What is your updated code?

#6

const myStr = "I am a \"doubled quoted\" string inside \"double quotes.";

I have it the very same as the example the first time, so can’t understand what is wrong ?
Is it not correct and maybe a bug with the programme?

Yes I know this one is incorrect, what was my first typo ?

Nowhere should you have ‘doubled’ in the string. You fixed it where @jwilkins.oboe pointed out but then moved the typo to another place.

Yeah I would just go back to your first code you posted and remove that extra letter.

You don’t need to change anything else.

Just delete one letter :slight_smile:

Feeling silly about a bug is totally normal! We’ve all been there.

I was so obsessed with the code I missed it!
