I was wondering if my function is correct? I think my test has a bug.

I check another persons work and compared it to mine. looks the same. The test said that my 1st task did not pass. I don't know whats up. Any help is appreciated.

script.js 
function getYear(){
  var year = new Data().getFullYear();
  return year;
}
index.html

Hi Johnathan,

In the line of code that the challenge asks you to add, you have the word "Data()" when it should be "Date()"
