const selectionSort = (array) => {
  for (let i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
    let minIndex = i;

    for (let j = i + 1; j < array.length; j++) {
      console.log(array, array[j], array[minIndex]);
      if (array[j] < array[minIndex]) {
        minIndex = j;
      }
    }
      let temp = array[i] 
      array[i] = array[minIndex]

Apparently, it was failing because I used let instead of const to declare temp . If I hadn’t seen the result by accessing the next lesson, I probably would never have found out

AFAIK You should pretty much always use const unless you need to use let
