My code is not working. please help!

Hey Pratik,

I found your problems in your code. Your quotes are fine as you are using single quotes, not double quotes. The problem was that you keep using the "var" keyword every time you are adding value to the "topList" variable. Only use the "var" keyword once when initializing the variable and after that do not use it.

Every time you use the "var" keyword before a variable, you are initializing it. That means that when you used it again in the for loop (and in the line after the for loop), you were telling the JS compiler that you wish for "topList" to be initialized again. You can't use "+=" with an initialization, so you have a double error going on here. 1) You overwrite the value of "topList" that was set beforehand to a now undefined value and 2) you cause a syntax error because you're attempting to use an illegal operator on a variable initialization.

I also added in the HTML that was likely stripped from your code. Be sure to wrap your code in 3 backticks when pasting code to the forums with a blank line above and below the code. Also, no other text on the line with backticks except for a language on the first set of backticks. There is a picture below of what I mean.

var playList = [ 'I Did It My Way', 'Respect', 'Imagine', 'Born to Run', 'Louie Louie', 'Maybellene' ];
function print(message) { 
  document.write(message); 
}

function printPlaylist (list) { 
  var topList = '<ol>'; 
  for(var i = 0; i < list.length; i++){ 
    //Removed var keyword from topList which causes an error when used with += operator
    topList += '<li>' + list[i] + '</li>'; 
  } 
  //Removed var keyword from topList which causes an error when used with += operator
  topList += '</ol>'; 
  print(topList); 
}

printPlaylist(playList);
