Tell us what’s happening:

I tried to follow the tutorial but could’t pass it.
I set the name bob to “bob”
and tried to follow the example

Your code so far


function chainToSwitch(val) {
  var answer = "";
  // Only change code below this line
  switch(val) {
     case "bob":
    answer = "Marley";
    break;
  case 42:
    answer = "The Answer";
    break;
case 1
    answer = "There is no #1";
    break;
    case 99:
    answer = "Missed me by this much!";
    break;
case 7:
    answer = "Ate Nine";
    break;
  }
  
  // Only change code above this line  
  return answer;  
}

// Change this value to test
chainToSwitch(7);
