Hi
you need only to declare a variable called lastLetterOfLastName that have the same functionality as lastLetterOfFirstName but on last name variable.

don’t say you got it without giving us the answere u found as well…

Hint
Try looking at the lastLetterOfFirstName variable declaration if you get stuck.
they give us most of the code already u just have to alter the words

var lastLetterOfLastName = lastName[lastName.length - ];

now comes the hardest part of this lesson
Lovelace
we need to get the e
since we enter our code last name where reading backwards without the 0
Lovel a c e
^^^^^ ^ ^ ^
3 2 1
so we need the 1 = e

var lastLetterOfLastName = lastName[lastName.length - 1];
