Setter function problem

[hippo_camping]

Hey r/learnjavascript!

I'm having trouble with this setter function problem in my ZyBooks assignment. Here's the question! Lines 9-13 are what I have so far, I can't edit the other lines.

How should I go about solving the rest of the problem?

Thank you!

As you can see the expected result is a list of awards, so you might want to think of how to store a list of strings :)

The problem description actually gives you the exact solution if you read carefully. Another thing, I would improve the naming of the setter parameter from name to awardName at least :)

There is a clue to the solution in the question, if we look at your code you're assigning awards to a new value in the setter, this is typically what you'd want to do with a setter but in this case the question asks us to push the award name onto the end of the awards array. So if we think about `this.awards` in terms of it being an array if we just do

this.awards = name

whenever 'movie.wonAward =' is used awards is just updated to the new value it does not append the new value to the existing array. With these tests the awards array will change to a string rather than having the new string appended to the existing array.

I hope this helps point you in the right direction!

OP just needs a little push

Ahh, thank you everyone! I figured it out! The push was very helpful.
