This question seems wrong. Change the attribute of an object variable.

I think the correct answer would be animal.weight=800; However, it appears the quiz has not given any of the correct answers. Unless C is a trick answer.

Hi Yacine

You are correct animal.weight would be correct too, there are multiple ways of changing an object literals property value.

dot notation syntax

This is the one you are referring to

animal.weight = 800;

square breaket syntax

This is what the question provides as a possible answer

animal['weight'] = 800;

Hope this helps
