Tell us what’s happening:
Describe your issue in detail here.

  **Your code so far**


function checkObj(obj, checkProp) {
// Only change code below this line
var checkObj= {
  gift: "pony",
  pet: "kitten",
  city: "Seattle"
};
if(checkObj.hasOwnProperty(checkProp)){
return checkObj[checkProp];
} else{
return "Not Found";
// Only change code above this line
}
}

**This Is what the last part is asking: (checkObj({pet: "kitten", bed: "sleigh"}, "gift") should return the string Not Found .)

What is this doing here?

Basically, you are hard-coding one specific object and only using that object…

But here in the function objects you have obj…

which is passed in here when the function is called.

You need to use the function argument obj instead of hard-coding a different object.

what does it mean to hard-code?

It means that you are forcing your function to only use one object, the one you create inside of the function, instead of using the function arguments.
