It doesn’t look like you’ve tried anything yet.

Let’s back up.

First step - what do the arguments to this function mean?

What is records?

What is id?

What is prop?

What is value?

Ok, well can you guess? How could you experiment and find out?

Here is what the challenge says:

You start with an updateRecords function that takes an object literal, records , containing the musical album collection, an id , a prop (like artist or tracks ), and a value . Complete the function using the rules below to modify the object passed to the function.

something like this?? function updateRecords(id, prop, artist, tracks) {
and then return the value??
}
