Hi @cjdonnelly2001

Check out the message in the console.

Happy coding

I was missing the last } the console was telling me there was an error on line 219 while it was actually missing on 190

But how would the error checking code know that you intended to have a closure there? It doesn’t know what you wanted to code.

The missing curly brace caused an error later in the code. Use that as a guide, or a clue, to find the problem.
