15,053 PointsAs the previous person mentions, you need to update your code.
A console.log
function needs to have a parentheses around what you want to log to the console so it looks like this:
console.log( ...your code... );
Now, for an array, you can target the index of an array via the brackets []
. However, you need to put the name of the array first. Therefore it would look something like this:
players[0]
Altogether, if you want to console log a specific array item, then you would have something like this:
console.log(players[0]);

var players = ['Jim', 'Shawna', 'Andrew', 'Lora', 'Aimee', 'Nick'];
console.log(players[0]);
