Objects for Properties

Tell us what’s happening:
I don’t understand what return obj[checkProp]; mean? Can someone explain the logic here? Also, how do I get it to return “not found”?

Your code so far
function checkObj(obj, checkProp) {
// Only change code below this line
if(obj.hasOwnProperty(checkProp)) {
return obj[checkProp];
} else {
return “Not Found”;
}
// Only change code above this line
}


function checkObj(obj, checkProp) {
// Only change code below this line
if(obj.hasOwnProperty(checkProp)) {
  return obj[checkProp];
} else {
  return "Not Found";
}
// Only change code above this line
}

Challenge: Testing Objects for Properties

Link to the challenge:

Your code works.

When you’re returning obj[checkProp], you are returning its value. Say, for example,
obj = {
checkProp: 1;
}

Then, you will return 1.

Returning “Not Found” just returns a string, that tells you that the obj does not have a checkProp property.
