302 Pointselse if statement
I don't understand what is wrong it keeps asking if I am putting the required message into the message value.
const isAdmin = false;
const isStudent = true;
let message;
if ( isAdmin === false) {
message = 'Welcome admin';
} else if ( isStudent === true) {
message = "Welcome student";
}

Treehouse Moderator 27,696 PointsWhy are you changing the starter code? Leave that alone and add the else if
as instructed.
Also, because isAdmin
and isStudent
return aboolean
, you don't need to do the ===
check. Hope this guides you in the right direction.
