561 PointsWhy do I get this particular "unreachable statement" error?
It seems like the error has to do with my line of code containing the boolean variable "Notile".
Any help in finding a solution to this problem is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. :-)

561 PointsTo solve the challenge, I deleted the return value of false and replaced it with this: return.tiles.indexOf(tile) != -1;

561 PointsSteven, Thank you so much. I really appreciate your help. Luckily, I found the solution to complete the challenge while reading a 2 year old post regarding the same code challenge. :-)
