please help me

Your code so far


function checkEqual(a, b) {
var x= (a === b )? " Equal" : " Not Equal";
 return x;

}

var x1 = checkEqual(1, 2);
console.log(x1);

Be careful with these strings:

" Equal" : " Not Equal";

They should not start with a space.

Works fine more me. looks good. generally though you want to use ternaries sparingly.

regular if statements are preferable because they are easier to read at a glance

if (a === b):
    var x = ' Equal'
else: 
    var x =  ' Not Equal'
return x

or better yet

if (a !== b):
   return ' Not Equal'
return ' Equal'

can be understood quicker at a glance than

var x = (a === b) ? " Equal" : " Not Equal";

But it’s only more readable because you have the ternary in one line.
If you move it into a more readable format, ternarys are easy to understand.
