What's wrong with my counting card code

var count = 0;

function cc(card) {

  // Only change code below this line

switch(card){

  case 2:

  case 3:

  case 4:

  case 5:

  case 6:

  count++;

  break;

  case 10:

  case 'J':

  case 'Q':

  case 'k':

  case 'A':

  count--;

  break;

}

if(count > 0) {

    return count + " Bet";

  } else {

    return count + " Hold";

  }

 

  // Only change code above this line

}

cc(2); cc(3); cc(7); cc('K'); cc('A');

To decrement or decrease a variable by one you can use the - - operator on the variable. Therefore, to decrement global count variable , use count- -

I assume, you have it as count-

You’ve a spelling mistake here:

case 'k':

I’ve edited your post for readability. When you enter a code block into a forum post, please precede it with a separate line of three backticks and follow it with a separate line of three backticks to make it easier to read.

You can also use the “preformatted text” tool in the editor (</>) to add backticks around text.

See this post to find the backtick on your keyboard.
Note: Backticks (`) are not single quotes (’).

Thanks man, your observation actually gave out the solution.
