Create Strings using Template Literals question

JavaScript

Tell us what’s happening:
I understand the model solution but I’m just curious to why my solution won’t work. Is there something obvious I’m missing?

Thanks in advance, I know my solution is not very robust but I’m just trying to ask questions to help me learn to think differently.

Your code so far


const result = {
  success: ["max-length", "no-amd", "prefer-arrow-functions"],
  failure: ["no-var", "var-on-top", "linebreak"],
  skipped: ["id-blacklist", "no-dup-keys"]
};
function makeList(arr) {
  "use strict";

  // change code below this line
  const resultDisplayArray = `<li class="text-warning">${arr[0]}</li>!
  <li class="text-warning">${arr[1]}</li>!
  <li class="text-warning">${arr[2]}</li>`;
  // change code above this line

  return resultDisplayArray;
}
/**
 * makeList(result.failure) should return:
 * [ `<li class="text-warning">no-var</li>`,
 *   `<li class="text-warning">var-on-top</li>`, 
 *   `<li class="text-warning">linebreak</li>` ]
 **/
const resultDisplayArray = makeList(result.failure);

nevermind, figured it out - I’m just generating a list of strings rather than an array…but in theory ${arr[0]} should be a valid way to reference result array right?

Thanks for the prompt response Randel, I knew my solution wasn’t robust to begin with lol I figured it out with the map function.
