    constructor(email, username, birthday) {
        this.email = email;
        this.username = username;
        this.birthday = birthday;
    }
    changeUsername(username) {
     this.username = username;

    }

}
user1.changeUsername(“TreehouseStudent2”);
var user1 = new User('JavaScriptStudent@teamtreehouse.com', 'JSUser1', '1/08/1991');
User.js 
class User {

        this.email = email;
        this.username = username;

Hi Dane!

You've got task 2 above task 1:

This passes task 1:

class User {
    constructor(email, username, birthday) {
        this.email = email;
        this.username = username;
        this.birthday = birthday;
    }
    changeUsername(username) {
       this.username = username;
    }
}
var user1 = new User('JavaScriptStudent@teamtreehouse.com', 'JSUser1', '1/08/1991');

The curious thing is this should pass task 2:

user1.changeUsername(“TreehouseStudent2”);

But look at the colors!?! It's wrong (but coded correctly)

If I cut and paste from here:

https://teamtreehouse.com/community/thank-you-very-much-for-all-your-help-i-will-sleep-now-and-hopefully-i-will-understand-it-tomorrow-too-much-for-now

(Steven Parker answer)

Like this:

user1.changeUsername("TreehouseStudent2");

class User {
    constructor(email, username, birthday) {
        this.email = email;
        this.username = username;
        this.birthday = birthday;
    }
    changeUsername(username) {
       this.username = username;
    }
}
var user1 = new User('JavaScriptStudent@teamtreehouse.com', 'JSUser1', '1/08/1991');

user1.changeUsername("TreehouseStudent2");

That passes!?!

The cut/paste thing is something I'm trying to fix!?!

I hope that helps.

Stay safe and happy coding!

Yes the copy and paste definitely threw me off, thank you, I was able to pass it by simply typing it below task 1.
