What is not working

Tell us what’s happening:
This code works perfectly for the first profile but for the rest of the profiles it shows "no such contact ".
Any suggestion is welcomed

  **Your code so far**
// Setup
const contacts = [
{
  firstName: "Akira",
  lastName: "Laine",
  number: "0543236543",
  likes: ["Pizza", "Coding", "Brownie Points"],
},
{
  firstName: "Harry",
  lastName: "Potter",
  number: "0994372684",
  likes: ["Hogwarts", "Magic", "Hagrid"],
},
{
  firstName: "Sherlock",
  lastName: "Holmes",
  number: "0487345643",
  likes: ["Intriguing Cases", "Violin"],
},
{
  firstName: "Kristian",
  lastName: "Vos",
  number: "unknown",
  likes: ["JavaScript", "Gaming", "Foxes"],
},
];

function lookUpProfile(name, prop) {
// Only change code below this line
for (let a = 0; a < contacts.length; a++) {
  if (contacts[a].firstName === name) {
    if (contacts[a].hasOwnProperty(prop)) {
      return contacts[a][prop]
    }
    else {
      return "No such property"
    }
  }
  else {
    return "No such contact"
  }
}
// Only change code above this line
}
lookUpProfile("Akira", "likes");

Challenge: Profile Lookup

Link to the challenge:

You are returning ‘No such contact’ while looping, but how can you tell that the contact is not there if you haven’t checked all of them?

Hope this make sense :sparkles:
