Your code so far



function testElse(val) {
  var result = "";
  // Only change code below this line
  
  if (val > 5) {
    result = "Bigger than 5";
  } else {
    result = "5 or smaller";
  }
  
  // Only change code above this line
  return result;
}

// Change this value to test
console.log(testElse(5));

No bug. You just have a typo in the else statement code block.

Capitalization matters for what you need to return. The basic code solution hint will not pass. Copy and paste does not always work.

  return result;
}

// Change this value to test
testElse(4);

This is unnecessary and/or improper syntax.
