Review JavaScript Fundamentals by Building a Gradebook App - Step 3

Tell us what’s happening:

why my else if (getGrade = “F”){return (false);} is not giving the false if “F” is a score

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";
  }
}

function hasPassingGrade(score) {
 if (getGrade > "F"){
    return (true);
  } else if (getGrade = "F"){ 
    return (false);
  }
}


console.log(hasPassingGrade(100));
console.log(hasPassingGrade(53));
console.log(hasPassingGrade(87));

This definitely isn’t doing what you think it does

changed it to getGrade =! “F”

That also doesn’t do what you think.

What do you think getGrade does? What type of thing is getGrade?

a function and it gets the grade based on the numeric score
