5,595 PointsNot understandable syntax error
After the node.js course, I decided to go ahead and practice, I'm trying to make a program that when you'll type an Instagram username it will tell you how many followers does he have. But unfortunately I god a syntax error. The code: const https = require('https');
const request = https.get("https://www.instagram.com/HELLO/", function(response){ let body = ""; response.on('data', data function() { body += data.toString(); }); response.on('end', function() { var data = JSON.parse(body); console.log(data); }); });
The error: AyntaxError: missing ) after argument list.

I suspect the word data right before the anonymous function in the second argument to response.on doesn't belong.
