6,556 PointsHow do I get the symbol in-between?
I cannot figure out why the '#' is not running in the middle
var id = "23188xtr";
var lastName = "Smith";
var userName = id.toUpperCase();
var id = id + '#'();
var lastName = lastName.toUpperCase();
var userName = id + lastName;

18,814 PointsYou've got the right idea, but you don't need parentheses after concatenation.
var id = id + '#'(); // remove () at the end
EDIT - I just noticed one other issue that may prevent it from passing.
var id = "23188xtr";
var lastName = "Smith";
var userName = id.toUpperCase(); // userName is now = 23188XTR
var id = id + '#'(); // id is now = 23188xtr# - note that this is not all caps
var lastName = lastName.toUpperCase(); // lastName is now = SMITH
var userName = id + lastName; // userName is now = 23188xtr#SMITH - note that this is not all caps
