Test for a specific property of object

JavaScript
1

Unable to pass test object properties :
I need someone to run me through ,
I am finding it difficult to complete the bellow code using the object and the property’s declared as an argument within the function.

   **Your code so far**


function checkObj(obj, checkProp) {
 // Only change code below this line
({obj:"checkProp"}, "obj");
 if(obj.hasOwnProperty("checkProp")){
 return obj[checkProp];
 }
 else{
   return "Not Found";
 }
 // Only change code above this line
}

What is this line?

This is checking for the property named “checkProp” instead for the property with the name stored in the checkProp variable.

Based on my understanding of the question.
"obj " is Object and CheckProp is the property of Obj .So, the line you are pointing to is initialization.

4

Ok… but what do you think that line is doing

5

It is an assignment that assigning checkProp to the obj

6

There is no =, so it cannot be an assignment.

And you shouldn’t ‘assign’ checkProp to the object. You shouldn’t change obj in any way.

7

“obj” is acting as the value and “CheckProp” is properties.
therefore, obj is acting as a container for CheckProp

No. I don’t understand what you are trying to do, but it is not at all needed or correct.

That line isn’t doing anything, but whatever you are trying to do with that line is not needed. That line should be deleted.

Thanks,
After deleting the line the code is not yet perfect .How do I go about the rest? I have been struggling with this since yesterday and I have done all the magic
