Maybe you should rewatch a couple of the videos prior to the challenge, you might have missed some stuff that make it difficult to complete this challenge.

So the first part of the challenge is to assign a value to the "userName" variable, this value should be the value of the "id" variable, but in uppercase.

var userName = id.toUpperCase();

You will complete the next part with ease if you understand how to combine strings.
