Hi guys! I was wondering why this code doesn’t work:
//Setup
var 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(firstName, prop) {
// Only change code below this line
for (var x = 0; x < contacts.length; x++) {
if (contacts[x].hasOwnProperty(firstName)) { // this is what's different from the correct code
if (contacts[x].hasOwnProperty(prop)) {
return contacts[x][prop];
} else {
return "No such property";
}
}
}
return "No such contact";
// Only change code above this line
}
// Change these values to test your function
lookUpProfile("Harry", "likes");
I know the correct code is supposed to be (contacts[x].firstName === firstName)
but I can’t figure out how they are different.
