Tell us what’s happening:

whats wrong with this code

Your code so far


const createPerson = (name, age, gender) => 
  "use strict";
  // change code below this line
( {
    name,
    age,
    gender
  });
  // change code above this line

console.log(createPerson("Zodiac Hasbro", 56, "male")); // returns a proper object

You’re not returning anything, you need toreturn a value.

You also left out the brackets ({ }) of the function body. You can only do that when the function contains just one line of code. Since you have the "use strict" line as well as the line returning the object, you must use brackets and the return statement.
See the https://learn.freecodecamp.org/javascript-algorithms-and-data-structures/es6/use-arrow-functions-to-write-concise-anonymous-functions/ challenge where it says you can leave out the brackets and the retrun statement when the function only contains a return statement (and nothing else).

I think its fine since it uses arrow notation of a function

You can elide the return if the entirety of the function body is a single expression. In this case there is a statement and an expression: "use strict"; and the object you want to return – tthe body has two lines of code, you cannot leave out the return or the curly brackets.
