11,506 PointsI'm having trouble with this last part of the task. I can't figure out how to get the .toUpperCase function to work.
let firstName = "Jon";
let lastName = "Adams";
let role = "developer";
let word = role.toUpperCase();
var msg = firstName + " " + lastName + " : " + role;

231,248 PointsYou are using the ".toUpperCase" method correctly, but you are assigning the result to a new variable named "word", and "word" is not being used to create "msg".
Just substitute "word" for "role" in the final statement to pass the challenge.

3,452 PointsI am not able to get this to work.
let firstName = "Corey"; let lastName = "Draper"; let role = "developer";
let role = role.toUpperCase();
var msg = firstName + ' ' + lastName + ': ' + role;
