I can't seem to get my simple function code to work. Am i missing something?
function returnValue(math){
var addition = math + 10;
return addition;
}
console.log( returnValue (12) );

4,730 PointsThanks Ashish. Maybe has to do with spacing or formating of my code, i heard treehouse challenges has to have a specific formating an order for your code to pass.
In terms of my code, i keep getting this message " Bummer! Make sure you return the argument that's passed into the function. In other words type return, a space, and the parameter name."

4,730 PointsI'm not 100% sure if this is going to work but: https://teamtreehouse.com/library/javascript-basics/creating-reusable-code-with-functions/passing-an-argument-to-a-function
If not, it is called "Challenge Task 1 of 2" under javascript basics
