Learn Introductory JavaScript by Building a Pyramid Generator - Step 115

Tell us what’s happening:

You should pass a padRow() call as the argument for your .unshift() method.

Your code so far

const character = "#";
const count = 8;
const rows = [];
let inverted = true;

function padRow(rowNumber, rowCount) {
  return " ".repeat(rowCount - rowNumber) + character.repeat(2 * rowNumber - 1) + " ".repeat(rowCount - rowNumber);
}

// TODO: use a different type of loop

// User Editable Region

for (let i = 1; i <= count; i++) {
  if (inverted) {
    rows.unshift(padRow(i, count));
  } else {rows.push(row);
  numbers.unshift()
  } 
}


// User Editable Region


/*while (rows.length < count) {
  rows.push(padRow(rows.length + 1, count));
}*/

/*for (let i = count; i > 0; i--) {
  rows.push(padRow(i, count));
}*/

let result = ""

for (const row of rows) {
  result = result + "\n" + row;
}

console.log(result);

Hi @Shooki

The hint messages are wrong.

@Shooki

for (let i = 1; i <= count; i++) {
  if (inverted) {
    rows.unshift(padRow(i, count));
  } else {rows.push(row);   <=== remove this `.push()`
  numbers.unshift()         <=== remove this `.unshift()`
  } 
}

Please reset the step, and try again.

For this step, use the .push method.

Here is the correct error message.

You should call the .push() method of rows in your else block.

Happy coding

[Shooki]

still the same

You should pass a

padRow()

call as the argument for your

.unshift()

method. You should pass

I

as the first argument to your

padRow()

call. You should pass

count

as the second argument to your

padRow()

call.

Hi @Shooki

Reset the step then press the Check Your Code button to see the correct error message.

I still get this after the “check your code”
You should pass a padRow() call as the argument for your .unshift() method.
the new code
for (let i = 1; i <= count; i++) {
if (inverted) {
rows.unshift(padRow(i, count));
}
else {rows.push(rows);
}
}

When I empty the else block I receive this hint message:

You should call the .push() method of rows in your else block.
