Tell us what’s happening:

please help solving this; direct me please…
function getHighestDuplicates(dice) {
const counts = {};
dice.forEach(num => {
counts[num] = (counts[num] || 0) + 1;
});

const totalScore = dice.reduce((acc, num) => acc + num, 0);

if (counts >= 4) {
updateRadioOption(0, totalScore);
} else if (counts >= 3) {
updateRadioOption(1 , totalScore);
} else {
updateRadioOption(5 , 0);
}
}

Your code so far

/* file: script.js */
// User Editable Region

function getHighestDuplicates(dice) {
    const counts = {};
    dice.forEach(num => {
        counts[num] = (counts[num] || 0) + 1;
    });

    const totalScore = dice.reduce((acc, num) => acc + num, 0);


  if (counts >= 4) {
        updateRadioOption(0, totalScore);
    } else if (counts >= 3) {
        updateRadioOption(1 , totalScore);
    } else {
        updateRadioOption(5 , 0);
    }
}



rollDiceBtn.addEventListener("click", () => {
  if (rolls === 3) {
    alert("You have made three rolls this round. Please select a score.");
  } else {
    rolls++;
    rollDice();
    updateStats();
    getHighestDuplicates(dice);
    console.log(counts)
  }
});
