myVar = myVar + 1; should be changed

Tell us what’s happening:

Your code so far


var myVar = 87;

// Only change code below this line
myVar = myVar +1;
myVar = 88;
myVar = myVar ++;

So you need to change the “myVar = myVar + 1” to use the “++” method they talk about. You don’t need the rest. For example, “newVar = newVar + 1” is the same as “newVar++”

When I run the code above, i get:

// running tests
myVar = myVar + 1; should be changed
// tests completed

In the instructions pay attention to the line that reads:

The entire line becomes i++; , eliminating the need for the equal sign.
