Courses Plus Student 94,610 PointsHi Sandy,
You've accidentally placed your for loop inside the shanghai object creating a syntax error and you're also missing a closing curly brace.
var shanghai = {
population: 14.35e6,
longitude: '31.2000 N',
latitude: '121.5000 E',
country: 'CHN'
};
// place your for in loop here after the closing of the shanghai object
Also, you'll get a message suggesting it's a good idea to use the var keyword for your prop variable.
Example: for (var prop in shanghai) {

for Functions, Closures, Variables and the like. Having another teacher's perspective has been invaluable for me,
Struggling as I am. (Hope this helps)
