Nope, it is not. You still have stuff that isn’t a template literal there, and you’re missing part of the template literal.

106

can you be more precise? what symbols indicate the start and end of the template literal?

107

But in the task it is written about it: After your label element, and on a new line in your template string, create an input element.

108

You have not correctly identified the template literal.

109

How should I define it more correctly? Please give me a little more correct definition of it. I’ll learn it by heart.

110

You could try answering my question, which symbol indicate the start and which symbol indicates the end of the template literal?

You should be able to research what a template literal is this far into the curriculum. Have you looked at MDN or Google?

112

If I had applied there, I would have known the standard definition of this term, and since I did not apply anywhere, I do not know it.

113

Then you should try looking up the definition.

114

Without any problem: " Step 42

JavaScript has a feature called template literals, which allow you to interpolate variables directly within a string. Template literals are denoted with backticks ```` , as opposed to single or double quotes. Variables can be passed in to a template literal by surrounding the variable with ${} – the value of the variable will be inserted into the string."

115

You should be able to answer @ILM’s question with that definition.

116

Ok, I’ll do it right now.I did not expect that right now I would be given a test or an exam for knowledge and understanding of the theoretical content of lectures.

My answer is: Step 42

JavaScript has a feature called template literals, which allow you to interpolate variables directly within a string. Template literals are denoted with backticks ```` , as opposed to single or double quotes. Variables can be passed in to a template literal by surrounding the variable with ${} – the value of the variable will be inserted into the string.

118

Well, the answer is inside there for sure, so please tell me the answer, and not the copied text

119

Again, copy-pasting text you find is still not helpful. You should try to answer the question asked.

120

You should exactly answer to the questions. Like:

"" //This is called string in JavaScript;
[] // This is called array;

Now it’s your turn. What is template literals string

121

Ok, I’ll do it right now.I did not expect that right now I would be given a test or an exam for knowledge and understanding of the theoretical content of lectures.

122

This is not a test about theoretical content. This is a very practical question about content that you need to be able to use to solve this step.

As I promised, I will answer the question in my own words based on the lecture material. As stated in the theoretical part of step (lecture) No. 42, JavaScript has a function called template literals that allows you to interpolate variables directly inside a string. Template literals are indicated by the back sign ` , unlike single or double quotes. Variables can be passed to the template literal by surrounding the variable with the ${} symbol – the value of the variable will be inserted into the string." What I want to say is that you have a very strong preparation here, that at any moment you can ask any lecture to be reproduced in your own words in its theoretical part.

124

That’s still way more text than the direct answer to the question that was asked.

And again, this is absolutely not a theoretical question. This is a concrete and specific syntax question.
