- Enter your variable
- Add a period
- Enter the method name
- Add opening and closing parenthesis (filling with variables between them if necessary)
- End with a semi-colon if it's the end of a line
var userName = inputSring.toUpperCase();

4,242 PointsIf you're talking about concatenation, you should be able to do something like this:
var userName = (id + lastName).toUpperCase();
There's probably a more simple way to accomplish it, but that's what I came up with.
