Struggling with Counting Cards

JavaScript

Tell us what’s happening:
I honestly don’t know where i am going wrong. Been at it for a while now. Help!

Your code so far


var count = 0;

function cc(card) {
  // Only change code below this line
  var co;
  switch(card){
    case 2:
    case 3:
    case 4: 
    case 5:
    case 6:
    count++;
    break;
    case 7:
    case 8:
    case 9:
    count==0;
    break;
    case 10:
    case "J":
    case "Q":
    case "K":
    case "A":
    count--;
  } 
  if(count > 0)
      { co= "Bet";}
      else{ co= "Hold";}

  
  
  return count+""+co;
  // Only change code above this line
}

// Add/remove calls to test your function.
// Note: Only the last will display
cc(2); cc(3); cc(7); cc('K'); cc('A');

You are returning (eg) "2Bet" or "4Bet"

What do you want to do with this? count == 0 doesn’t change anything, at this point you can not include this part and everything stay the same
