Unable to figure out Challenge Task 1 of 1 for a week now. Hints are not doing it for me. It is a simple mistake I know.
const isAdmin = 'true';
const isStudent = 'false';
if ((let message = isAdmin) === true ) {
console.log("Welcome Admin")
}

Treehouse StaffHi Maurice Ansley 👋
It looks like you've changed the values of both the isAdmin
and isStudent
variables to be strings rather than the provided boolean values. You'll want to revert that change and bring back the declaration for the message
variable. After this change, the first three lines should look like this:
const isAdmin = true;
const isStudent = false;
let message;
As for the conditional, you'll want to have a look at the challenge:
Create a conditional statement that tests if the isAdmin variable is true. If it's true, set the value of the message variable to "Welcome admin".
Currently, you're logging "Welcome admin"
to the console rather than setting the value of the message
variable to "Welcome admin". You'll instead want to do something like this:
if(isAdmin === true) {
message = "Welcome admin"
}
I hope this clears things up and helps you to get going again 😄

994 Pointsconst isAdmin = false; const isStudent = false; let message;
if ( isAdmin ) { message = 'Welcome admin'; } else if ( isStudent ) { message = 'Welcome student'; } else { message = "Access Denied" } Thank you so much... I was going crazy.. lol
