57,712 PointsHi there,
Your last line of code shows the method we need to adopt here.
We have a grocery_list
which has an empty array within it, called items
. We want to add grocery_item
to that empty array.
This only needs one line of code; we don't need to define new methods or return anything.
First, select the items
array of grocery_list
. We can do that by using square brackets after grocery_list
and putting 'items
inside that:
grocery_list['items']
After this, use dot notation to push
the grocery_item
onto the items
array:
grocery_list['items'].push(grocery_item)
I hope that makes sense.
Steve.
