Everybody is saying that when they add the .Lenght to the var quick = Quicklenght = quick; it accepts it, but mine does not. Is it a bug? Please help.

The code on line 18 is:
var quickLength = quick;
You just want to modify that to use the length method so it should read:
var quickLength = quick.length;

var name = "Chen Coello";
console.log(name.length); // outputs 11
hope that helps. cheers

28,888 PointsThat was the exact answer I just typed into the change and it accepted it successfully. Is that the correct question in the challenge that you're stuck at?
