Learn Introductory JavaScript by Building a Pyramid Generator - Step 51

Tell us what’s happening:

I don’t understand why my test variable is not showing up inside the function(it shows up transparent when I type in the code inside the function). Can someone please explain what I am doing wrong?

Your code so far

const character = "#";
const count = 8;
const rows = [];


// User Editable Region

function padRow(name) {
  return character + name;
  const test = padRow("Testing");
}


// User Editable Region

const call = padRow("CamperChan");
console.log(call);


for (let i = 0; i < count; i = i + 1) {
  rows.push(character.repeat(i + 1))
}

let result = ""

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

console.log(result);

Welcome to the forum @zynebnasir2001

To see this in action, use const to declare a test variable in your padRow function. Initialise it with the value "Testing" .

The instructions are asking you to assign a string to a variable inside a function.

You declared the variable in the correct function, however you were not asked to call a function.

Happy coding
