Hi @Shabana_Asif

You almost got it.

Here is the original code:

const isSpam = (msg) => false;

Here is your code:

You correctly modified the right side of the assignment operator.
You modified the left side of the assignment operator, however you were not asked to do this.

Please reset the step to restore the original code and try again.

For next time, describe the issue in your own words. Learning to communicate problems is a part of becoming a web developer.

Happy coding
