Hi Silvia

It basically ask your name to assign ("=") as a String (for example- "Silvia") and then add semi-coma in the end. :)

Assign your name (as a string) to the myName variable.

var myName = "Silvia";

To assign your name as a string (a literal sequence of characters), you would use quotation marks to define the beginning and ending of the string.

The equals sign is the assignment operator, which indicates that you are assigning a value to the variable.

A semi-colon at the end of the statement indicates that your command is finished at the point it is used.

Example code (of course, you'd want to use your own name instead of 'firstname lastname':

var myName = "firstname lastname";

Thank you for the answers, I tried that multiple times but I got an error. It means it's gotta be a problem with the workspace or something.
