Arrays:Push & Pop

Trying to follow along with Push & Pop, This script:

//Push
var my_array = [2,3,4];
console.log(my_array.toString());

my_array.push(5);
console.log(my_array.toString());

//Pop
var value = my_array.pop;
console.log(my_array.toString());

is supposed to cut the '5' off of the end, but mine won't work.....any idea's?

you are missing the () on your pop method call

you have

var value = my_array.pop;

try

var value = my_array.pop();

This is my code for that section: ``` var my_array = [2, 3, 4]; console.log(my_array.toString());

my_array.push(5); console.log(my_array.toString());

var value = my_array.pop(); console.log(my_array.toString()); ```

Hope that helps.

Hi Douglas,

You have: var value = my_array.pop;

You're missing the parentheses on the end. You need them in order to call the method.

var value = my_array.pop();
