Tell us what’s happening:
Hello,
I keep getting an error, “firstName is not defined
firstName is not defined
firstName is not defined” and once I add quotations to firstName then I get another error.
I’m not sure exactly what I am doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated.
Your code so far
//Setup
var contacts = [
{

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