let y = 5;
y++;

The increment operators ++ and – if left unchanged will always increase or decrease a value by 1 and output the change in the variable.

In this case all you would need to write is SOLUTION REMOVED

I hope this helps.

It did, thanks for the tip

It is great that you solved the challenge, but instead of posting your full working solution, it is best to stay focused on answering the original poster’s question(s) and help guide them with hints and suggestions to solve their own issues with the challenge.

We are trying to cut back on the number of spoiler solutions found on the forum and instead focus on helping other campers with their questions and definitely not posting full working solutions.
