Good evening, please, how do I go about this step?

Your code so far

WARNING

Can you show us your code and what you have tried so far?

Also, please let us know what you are specifically stuck with so we can best assist you

Here is an example of returning a value using an if-else statement and a refactored example using a ternary operator:

if (num > 5) {
  return 'num is greater than 5';
} else {
  return 'num is smaller than or equal to 5';
}

return num > 5 ? 'num is greater than 5' : 'num is smaller than or equal to 5';

In getMonsterAttackValue, change return hit to a ternary operator that returns hit if hit is greater than 0, or returns 0 if it is not

4 
function getMonsterAttackValue(level) {
  const hit = (level * 5) - (Math.floor(Math.random() * xp));
  console.log(hit);
  if (hit > 0)
  {
  return 'hit is greater than 0' 
  } 
}
5

There’s the instruction and my code.

It doesn’t look like you are using the ternary operator here

the challenge wants you to use a ternary to return hit is hit is greater than 0 otherwise return 0

here is another example of a ternary

return points > 10 ? points : defaultPoints

in this example we are checking if points is greater than 10

points > 10

if true, return points
if false, return defaultPoints

the same logic applies to this problem here

you need to return a ternary.
Make sure your answer follows this syntax

return condition ? run some code : run some other code

the condition here is if hit is greater than 0

if true true, return hit

if false, return 0

hope that helps
