I need help with this

Use the JavaScript .toUpperCase( ) string method to assign an all uppercase version of the id variable to the userName variable.

var id = (userName.toUpperCase());

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

var userName
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
  <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
  <title>JavaScript Basics</title>
</head>
<body>
<script src="app.js"></script>
</body>
</html>
