Please provide your code and I can help you out :)

Actually, there might be a Syntax error in your code.

Since the challenge goes through all the tasks you've done if you complete one task.

Example:

TASK 1: Only checks task 1

TASK 2: the code challenge checks if task 1 AND task 2 pass

TASK 3: The code challenge check if 1, 2, and task 3 all pass

If there's a syntax error, the program automatically crashes and task 1 doesn't pass and that's why it will say "Oops! Task 1 isn't working".

It seems that you used two appends when the challenge was asking for one. The concatenation looks fine.

Try this:

var arrayOfInts = [1,2,3,4,5,6]

arrayOfInts.append(8)
arrayOfInts = arrayOfInts + [9]

I hope this helps. ~Alex
