Review JavaScript Fundamentals by Building a Gradebook App - Step 3

Tell us what’s happening:

Hello,
all examples evaluate “true” in the console, but I know the second should be false. I don’t understand why this doesn’t work:

function hasPassingGrade(score) {
if (getGrade != “F”) {
return true;
} else {
return false
}
}


I also tried this line with another operator, yet not accepted:
if (getGrade !== “F”) {

Could you give a hint?

Your code so far

function getAverage(scores) {
  let sum = 0;

  for (const score of scores) {
    sum += score;
  }

  return sum / scores.length;
}

function getGrade(score) {
  if (score === 100) {
    return "A++";
  } else if (score >= 90) {
    return "A";
  } else if (score >= 80) {
    return "B";
  } else if (score >= 70) {
    return "C";
  } else if (score >= 60) {
    return "D";
  } else {
    return "F";
  }
}

You need to call getGrade function with the score parameter. Hope this helps!
