Hi Vic,

It is not necessary to specify "var person" inside your object literals. You only needto specify the key-value paiors inside the object literals. Separate each object in the array by commas.

For this case it would be sufficient to write:

Var message = [
     //Object 1
    {
     Name: Victor
     },
      //Object 2
     {
      Key1: value1
      }
]

The above would create an array holding two objects. It may be expanded to hold any number of objects, and each object may have different key-value pairs.

Hope this answered your questions :)

Regards, Kjetil
