Challenge is asking me to use the document.write() function to print the contents of the player variable to the page.
var player = 'Jasmine';
document.write("var player = /'Jasmine';")

Courses Plus Student 26,868 Pointsbecause you have already defined the variable in the 1st line
var player = 'Jasmine';Once the variable is defined, to make use of it, you only need to refer to it by its name, player in this case.
