How should I check the value of s?
s is the argument provided to the function when it is called elsewhere in the program, so it’s just a value that we’re comparing against the strings ”yes” and ”no”.
Be sure you’re not using the function, shut_down(s), in your if or elif conditions being checked, as that’s invalid and will cause it to infinitely call itself. We’re only comparing s, the value passed to the function.
I think it was just a typo and the “s” was outside of “value”, which should have been “values”. Confused me first too, but then I realized it was just a typo.
Why am I seeing this as the community forum linked from Lesson 11, Review Functions, of Javascript Basics Unit: Functions?
For the same reason they think this doesn’t print “Thank you.” three times:
for (let c = 0; c < 3; c++) {
console.log('Thank you.');
}
I wonder, is there any more concise way in JS to write it?
Something like in Ruby:
3.times {
puts "Thank you!"
}
