What were the instructions for this step?

Now update your goStore function to call the update function. Pass the second element of the locations array as your argument.

You have written this

you need to call the update function in the body of the goStore function, remove the update parameter

then you need to give an argument to the update function, remember that locations is an array and that you need to use bracket notation to get the element you want to get
