You have braces to enclose the (currently empty) block for your "if" statement, but you're missing the braces that should enclose the body of the function.

However, you have a number of other issues, including:

  • creating a function is not part of the instructions for this challenge
  • you loop variable initial value is too large to be useful as an array index
  • the loop still needs to call "console.log"
  • the argument passed to "console.log" needs to be an item selected from the array by indexing
