Tell us what’s happening:

const character = “#”;
const count = 8;
const rows = ;

function padRow(name) {
const test = “Testing”;
console.log(“This works!”);

return test;
}

Your code so far

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


// User Editable Region

function padRow(name) {
  const test = "Testing";
  console.log("This works!");

  
  return test;
}







// 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);

Your first console.log should come after your return keyword.

Hey,

I’ve tested your code and it works, you just need to change those quotation mark “ “ by a normal ones " "

here is the final code:

function padRow(name)
{
    const test = "Testing";
    console.log("This works!");
    return test;
}

and here is the result:

This works!
"Testing"

Hope this help

I’ve edited your code for readability. When you enter a code block into a forum post, please precede it with a separate line of three backticks and follow it with a separate line of three backticks to make it easier to read.

You can also use the “preformatted text” tool in the editor (</>) to add backticks around text.

See this post to find the backtick on your keyboard.
Note: Backticks (`) are not single quotes (').

Hi there, please post a link to the step you are on so we can understand the context of your question.

Welcome to the forum @stephenngugi88

Your first console.log should come after your return keyword.

If that is the hint message, then try placing a console.log below the return statement. Make sure to copy it rather than moving it.

I went ahead and combined your posts for you. In the future, just reply to the original thread to add further updates.

Happy coding

Hey @Teller,

I don’t think this will fix the error, because adding console.log below the return keyword will make it unreachable and it will not execute.

Best Regard

Hi there @alamarnissi !

For the challenge step, it works. Because the curriculum challenges are specific about instructions. That instructions are just for teaching purpose of return keyword.
