how do i add # between two variable names which needs to be in capital letters

Complete the assignment to the userName variable by adding a # symbol followed by an all uppercase version of the lastName variable. In other words, using string concatenation so that the final value of userName is "23188XTR#SMITH".

app.js 
var id = "23188xtr";
var lastName = "Smith";
var userName= id.toUpperCase();
var userName=id + '#' + lastName.toUpperCase();

Hello! You are pass the lowercase version of id to userName variable. Try something like this.

var id = "23188xtr";
var lastName = "Smith";
var userName=id.toUpperCase() + '#' + lastName.toUpperCase();
