Never Mutate State: Object.assign not working

JavaScript
#1

Help, why can’t i make this right, i tried not to use concat and other array functions, just want to use the Object.assign() why it isn’t working?

Your code so far


const ADD_TO_DO = 'ADD_TO_DO';

// A list of strings representing tasks to do:
const todos = [
  'Go to the store',
  'Clean the house',
  'Cook dinner',
  'Learn to code',
];

const immutableReducer = (state = todos, action) => {
  switch(action.type) {
    case ADD_TO_DO:
      // don't mutate state here or the tests will fail
      return Object.assign({},state,action.todo);
    default:
      return state;
  }
};

// an example todo argument would be 'Learn React',
const addToDo = (todo) => {
  return {
    type: ADD_TO_DO,
    todo
  }
}

const store = Redux.createStore(immutableReducer);

The instructions state

See if you can find a way to return a new array with the item from action.todo appended to the end.

Instead, your code above attempts to return an object.
