Assign an all uppercase version of the id variable to the userName variable.

var id="23188xvt"; var lastName="bodhe";

app.js 
var id = "23188xtr";
var lastName = "Smith";

var userName="id.toUpperCase()";

var userName="id.toUpperCase()"

Take the quotes out of this and it should work for you.

var userName= id.toUpperCase();
