Issue Description

Browser Information

In JavaScript, you can store a value in a variable with the assignment operator.

myVariable = 5;

Assigns the Number value 5 to myVariable.

Assignment always goes from right to left. Everything to the right of the = operator is resolved before the value is assigned to the variable to the left of the operator.

myVar = 5; myNum = myVar; Assigns 5 to myVar and then resolves myVar to 5 again and assigns it to myNum.

Instructions Assign the value 7 to variable a.

Assign the contents of a to variable b.

@sanjayk722 some challenges are tricky, and are set up to make think harder, always reread the introduction, instructions, comments, and ask for help and a second opinion in the freecodecamp chatrooms!

This challenge works, although i can understand the confusion…

Also returning the answer does not pass the challenge, because it is not specific to the instructions

for example

return c;
/*does not pass the challenge*/
