Ciao! Thank you for responding. It’s just I haven’t properly learned the “Ask for help” function :sweat_smile:

I wanted to ask why my version of the line of code is incorrect:
my version: return contacts[i].prop;

the solution is showing: return contacts[i][prop];

this wants a property literally named prop

this evaluates the variable before accessing the property

for next time, it’s better if you also include your current code, the code you had in the first post is a bunch of syntax errors
