Treehouse Guest TeacherHello Aleksandr,
The challenge wants you to return 0 if the parameter value passed in is a string, number or is undefined.
The first issue is you are checking an element in the array, but you should only be checking the type of the parameter passed in.
In your function you are checking for 'object' is a type to return 0 for. Instead of checking that the type is not object, check that the type is not number.
Also, you only need to create the function itself. You can remove your array above your function.
I hope this helps.
