Code challenge problem

I am having trouble with the following code challenge.

Use the array method that combines all of the items in an array into a single string. In the final string, the array items should be separated by a comma AND a space. Finally, log the final string value to the console.

script.js 
var months = ['January','February','March','April','May','June','July','August','September','October','November','December'];
months.join(", ");
console.log(months);
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title>JavaScript Loops</title>
</head>
<body>
<script src="script.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

I believe you have to save the string into a variable, or put the method call inside the console.log().

//This one:
var monthString = months.join(", ");
console.log( monthString );

//Or this one: 
console.log( months.join(", ") );

var months = ['January','February','March','April','May','June','July','August','September','October','November','December']; var year = months.join(', '); console.log( year ); The code wanted the string year specified
