Inside the array literal, add three object literals. In other words, the objects array should have three values.

It says to :

Inside the array literal, add three object literals. In other words, the objects array should have three values. Each object should have 2 property/value pairs.

I've created the objects array, with 3 different object literals. Each object literal has 2 key : value pairs. What am I doing wrong? Anything to help,

Thank you,

Aaron

  person1{

    age : 23,
  },
  person2{
    name : 'Svetlana',
    age : 45,

You're pretty close, but when defining an object literal start with an open brace. There should be no name preceding it.

Also, commas separate the properties of an object, and also the elements of an array. But there should not be a comma after the last property or element.
