Build a Library

Hi there! I have a problem with my js-code. I know there is something wrong but I can’t find the fault. I hope someone can help me.

Code:

class Media{
 constructor(title) { 
	 this._title = title;
    this._ratings = [];
    this._isCheckedOut = false;
 } 
  get title(){
    return this._title;
  }
  get isCheckedOut(){
    return this._isCheckedOut;
  }
  get ratings(){
    return this._ratings;
  }
  
  toggleCheckOutStatus(){
   this._isCheckedOut=!this._isCheckedOut;
  }
  
  addRating(ratings){
    this._ratings.push(ratings);
  }
  
  getAverageRating(){
    let lengthOfArray = this.ratings.length;
    let ratingsSum = this.ratings.reduce((currentSum, rating) => currentSum + 		rating, 0); 
    let average = ratingsSum / lengthOfArray;
    return average;
	}
}

class book extends Media{
  constructor(title, author, pages){
    super(title);
    this._author = author;
    this._pages = pages;
  }
  get author(){
    return this._author;
  }
  get pages(){
    return this._pages;
  }
  
}

class movie extends Media{
  constructor(title, director, runTime){
    super(title);
    this._director = director;
    this._runTime = runTime;
  }
  get director(){
    return this._director;
  }
  get runTime(){
    return this._runTime;
  }
  
}

class cd extends Media{
  constructor(title, artist, songs){
    super(title);
    this._artist = artist;
    this._songs = songs;
  }
  get artist(){
    return this._artist;
  }
  get songs(){
    return this._songs;
  }
  
}
  
 	Media.toggleCheckOutStatus();

	Media.addRating(4,5,5);
	console.log(Media.getAverageRating());
	const speed = new Movie("Speed",["jan de Bont","116"];
  speed. .toggleCheckOutStatus();

speed.addRating(1,1,5);
  speed.getAverageRating();

Thank in advance!

look at the parentheses on this line:

const speed = new Movie("Speed",["jan de Bont","116"];

not all parentheses have a matching closing parenthesis

here:

speed. .toggleCheckOutStatus();

why two full stops? full stops = .

okay, that was 50% of my question. What do you think caused the error? What could possible be the problem?

Look, i can help you, but if you explain to me why you think things go wrong, i can see your thought process, correct any problems in your thought process, so you know better how to handle such a situation the next time. It will teach you so much more.

step 20 of the instructions:

Call .toggleCheckOutStatus() on the speed instance.

Did you do this? to me, it seems you called this method on the class itself, not on the instance as instructed

Hello stetim94,
that was very helpful --> THANK YOU SO MOUCH :smiley:
I found some other faults ^^
That’s the code which workers :

class Media{
constructor(title) {
this._title = title;
this._ratings = ;
this._isCheckedOut = false;
}
get title(){
return this._title;
}
get isCheckedOut(){
return this._isCheckedOut;
}
get ratings(){
return this._ratings;
}

toggleCheckOutStatus(){
this._isCheckedOut=!this._isCheckedOut;
}

addRating(ratings){
this._ratings.push(ratings);
}

getAverageRating(){
let lengthOfArray = this._ratings.length;
let ratingsSum = this.ratings.reduce((currentSum, rating) => currentSum + rating, 0);
let average = Math.round(ratingsSum / lengthOfArray);
this._ratings = average;
}
}

class book extends Media{
constructor(title, author, pages){
super(title);
this._author = author;
this._pages = pages;
}
get author(){
return this._author;
}
get pages(){
return this._pages;
}

}

class movie extends Media{
constructor(title, director, runTime){
super(title);
this._director = director;
this._runTime = runTime;
}
get director(){
return this._director;
}
get runTime(){
return this._runTime;
}

}

class cd extends Media{
constructor(title, artist, songs){
super(title);
this._artist = artist;
this._songs = songs;
}
get artist(){
return this._artist;
}
get songs(){
return this._songs;
}

}

const speed = new movie(“Speed”,“jan de Bont”,116);
console.log(speed);
speed.toggleCheckOutStatus();
console.log(speed);
speed.addRating(1);
speed.addRating(1);
speed.addRating(5);
//console.log(speed);
speed.getAverageRating();
console.log(speed);
