Learn Introductory JavaScript by Building a Pyramid Generator - Step 67

Tell us what’s happening:

anyone can help me i got stucked to concatenated this thing :slight_smile:
the question :
You should now see the same bunch of characters in your console. Your padRow function is doing the exact same thing you were doing earlier, but now it’s in a reusable section of its own.

Use the addition operator to concatenate a single space " " to the beginning and end of your repeated character string.

Remember that you can use the + operator to concatenate strings like this:

Example Code

" " + "string"

Check Your Code (Ctrl + Enter)

Sorry, your code does not pass. Don’t give up.

You should concatenate a single space to the beginning of your returned value.

ResetHelp

// running tests You should concatenate a single space to the beginning of your returned value. You should concatenate a single space to the end of your returned value. Your

padRow()

function should return the repeated

character

series with a space before and after the series. // tests completed // console output # ## ### #### ##### ###### ####### ########

Navigated to Step 67

Your code so far

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


// User Editable Region

function padRow(rowNumber, rowCount) {
  return character.repeat(rowNumber);
}

// User Editable Region


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

let result = ""

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

console.log(result);

what parts of the instructions are you finding confusing? what could you try to concatenate the space as requested?

7 
function padRow(rowNumber, rowCount) {
  const padRow = " " + "string";
  return character.repeat(rowNumber);
}

is it like this?

no, you are asked to change the return statement and cocatenate the space string there

Hello!

This step is asking us to concatenate the " " single space to both before and after the return character string.

In the example the “string” would be the current return value in our code with not any “” around it.

" " + "string"

See how the single space " " + has been added before the “string” in the example.
This is how we add it before the character.repeat(rowNumber).
Then, we use the + and the single space " " string after it as well.

Remember to leave a space between the " " marks.

I hope this helps to understand it better. I found this a bit confusing myself when I completed this step.

The hint that this step gives is not the most informative.

It is asking you to put a single space like this " " before and after your character.repeat(rowNumber) not to add spaces into the command, this makes it so that a single space is shown before and after each repeating character (#)

!!Adding a space into the existing return command will not work i.e
character.repeat(" " + rowNumber + " ") does not work!!

Second hint is "string "= character.repeat(rowNumber);

Happy coding.
