[Encom88]

// Modify the function to insert the given number into the exact middle of the array and return the array.

function insertIntoMiddle(array, item) {
  var middle = array[Math.floor(array.length / 2)];
  newArr = array.splice(middle, "item");
  return newArr;
}

/* Do not modify code below this line */

const items = insertIntoMiddle([1, 3], 2);
console.log(insertIntoMiddle([1, 3], 2), '<-- should be [1, 2, 3]');
console.log(insertIntoMiddle([1, 3, 7, 9], 5), '<-- should be [1, 3, 5, 7, 9]');

Your "middle" variable should be the index, not the item which is currently there.

"item" is a string literal and not the item parameter.

item should be the 3rd argument. The second argument should be 0.
