I need help assigning the contents of a to b by using =

[23lamarchee]

Tell us what’s happening:

Your code so far

// Setup
var a;
a = 7;
var b;

// Only change code below this line
var myVar;
myVar = 5;
var myNum; 
myNum = myVar; 
b = 7;

The variables have already been declared. The requirement is for you to assign a to b. The equal sign is the assignment operator.

@23lamarchee

var myVar;
myVar = 5;
var myNum; 
myNum = myVar; 

I’m not sure what this piece is doing. These lines should not be here.

@23lamarchee

b = 7;

Here, you should assign the contents of a to b, not the value that you happen to know was assigned to a.
