Issue with answer

I solved the problem correctly but system is not showing me that. My answer is greeting.apply(andrew, args1) at line 30. Please advise what I am doing wrong. Thanks, Raman

Hi R D,

Can't tell you what you're doing wrong without seeing the code.

Hi Jeff,

Below is the code:

var genericGreet = function(name, mood) { name = name || "you"; mood = mood || "good"; return "Hello " + name + ", my name is " + this.name + " and I am in a " + mood + " mood!"; };

  var andrew = {
    name: "Andrew"
  };

  var args1 = ["Michael", "awesome"];

  var greeting = genericGreet;
  greeting.apply(andrew, args1);

If I do "greeting.apply(andrew, args1)" in the console then I got the below output but not in the browser. "Hello Michael, my name is Andrew and I am in a awesome mood!"

I believe this is what they're looking for.

var greeting = genericGreet.apply(andrew,args1);
