Your on the right track, but there is an issue with this challenge. It wasn't taught in this video but you need to use the OR statement " | | "

First you need to add your parameter into the function.

second in the if clause you need to use the typeof "parameter" and see if that equals typeof "parameter 'string' || typeof "parameter" 'number' || typeof "parameter 'undefined' if so then return 0 else return parameter.length.

I hope this helps. this was a hard challenge because we never learned the " || " statement.
