Describe your issue in detail here.

Your code so far

function rot13(str) {

  let alpha="ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ";
  let secretMessage=[];
  const ROT13str= str.split('');

  for (let i=0; i<str.length; i++){

   switch(ROT13str[i]) {
    case "?":
    secretMessage.push("?");
    break;

    case "!":
    secretMessage.push("!");
    break;

    case ".":
    secretMessage.push(".");
    break;

  }

  let findIndex=(alpha.indexOf(ROT13str[i])+13);

 if (findIndex==12){
    secretMessage.push(" ");
  }

 else if (findIndex >=26){
    secretMessage.push((alpha[findIndex-=26]));
  }
  else{
    secretMessage.push((alpha[findIndex]));

  };
    
 };

  return secretMessage.join('').toUpperCase();

}

console.log(rot13("SERR YBIR?") );

Try wrapping the result printed to console into some delimiting characters, it will make seeing what’s happening easier.

console.log('"' + rot13("SERR YBIR?") + '"');
