I do not know why this won't work. It is very easy to read and four line of code.

<script>
/*Why Nothing appears in my browser? I think I am allowed to
 use a method on a property because value.upperCase will work.*/
let num='34534234'
alert(num.length.JSON.parse('2'))
/*Why the second line of code works if the first line of code won't work?*/
h1.classList.add()

.
</script>

Hi there, msdsmd sm,dfsadf! It's a little hard to know what you're after here. However, you're trying to access the JSON object as if it were a property on the length property of a String object.

The parse method of the JSON object takes a string. You only need to do JSON.parse() and pass in a string :smiley:

I think what you're looking for is:

alert(JSON.parse(num));

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
