Hi Mohammed,

No need to wrap your code in brackets like that, the simplest way to solve this challenge is as following:

var id = "23188xtr";
var lastName = "Smith";

var userName = id.toUpperCase() + "#" + lastName.toUpperCase();

the .toUpperCase() is a string method, that you can use on javascript strings.

Thanks for the help.
