Tell us what’s happening:

3. Your function should not return a hard-coded value. That is, it should work with any two number arguments. ive been stuck for days please help i dont know what this means

Your code so far

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

function padRow(name) {
  return name;
}

// User Editable Region

function addTwoNumbers (){
  return sum
}  let sum = 5 + 10
 sum = addTwoNumbers(5,10)
console.log(sum)

// 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 @corbinhugueley77

The example code uses parameters for the function.

This is the part causing the hard coded hint message.

@corbinhugueley77

let sum = 5 + 10

Please reset the step to restore the original code, then add just parameters to the function.

Happy coding

Hello and welcome to our forum!

Use parameters as @Teller suggested and return the sum of those parameters instead of the sum variable. Also, delete the sum variable declaration and where you reassigned sum to a function, use const to declare the variable.
