create a function named 'arrayCounter'... Can you find my error?

I can't figure out what's wrong with my code... have looked through forums. Any ideas?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <title>JavaScript Foundations: Functions</title>
    <style>
      html {
        background: #FAFAFA;
        font-family: sans-serif;
      }
    </style>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1>JavaScript Foundations</h1>
    <h2>Functions: Return Values</h2>
    <script>

      arrayCounter(input) {
        if (typeof input === "undefined" || typeof input === "string" || typeof input === "number") {
          return 0;
        }
        else {

         return input.length;
        }
      }



    </script>
  </body>
</html>

Hi,

You forgot the "function" keyword before arrayCounter.
