Tell us what’s happening:
Describe your issue in detail here.
**Your code so far**
// Setup
let sum = 0;
function addThree() {
sum = sum + 3;
}
// Only change code below this line
function addFive() {
sum = sum + 5;
}
// Only change code above this line
addThree();
addFive();
My code above is correct and lets me get to the next lesson, but I don’t get it so I’m hoping for some clarity.
In my function addFive, I don’t understand why it can’t be:
sum + 5;
instead of needing to say:
sum = sum + 5;
Why do I need to change the value of sum to sum + 5, instead of just saying when this function is run, it should add 5 to the sum (sum + 5)??
Hopefully that makes sense.
