if(currentWeaponIndex < 3){
      function buyWeapon() {
        if (gold >= 30) {
        gold -= 30;
        currentWeaponIndex++;
        goldText.innerText = gold;
        let newWeapon = weapons[currentWeaponIndex].name;
        text.innerText = "You now have a " + newWeapon + ".";
        inventory.push(newWeapon);
        text.innerText += " In your inventory you have: " + inventory;
      } else {
        text.innerText = "You do not have enough gold to buy a weapon.";
      }

It is asking you to wrap the code inside the function in the if statement, not the function itself.

Wrap all of the code in your buyWeapon function inside another if statement.

yeah, that’s right, thank you.
I should read carefully.

Just as an aside. You will pretty much never surround function definitions with conditional code, it doesn’t really serve much purpose. I suppose it might be used as some sort of odd optimization to avoid function definitions that aren’t needed. But I don’t think I have ever seen that.

If it was a function returning a function, then you might see the return function definition inside a condition.

Anyway, happy coding.
