Full Stack JavaScript Techdegree Student 5,665 PointsCan't figure out concatenation of arrays
Here's what I'm trying on this problem...
arrayOfInts = arrayOfInts + 8
the number is arbitrary but isn't that a valid way to concatenate a number to an array?
// Enter your code below
var arrayOfInts = [1,2,3,4,5,6]
arrayOfInts.append(7)
arrayOfInts = arrayOfInts + 8

So far so good, you are doing well. You can use the addition assignment operators ( += ) as an alternative to adding items to an array.
Here is an example:
// Using the assignment operator
var someArray: [String] = ["Treehouse"]
someArray += ["Student"]
// Concatenating
someArray = someArray + ["Hello"]
Good luck, if you have more questions please let me know.
