Hi everyone! Why do i get undefined when i call console.log(student.major) and how to fix it? Can anyone help me? Here is the codes:
class Student {
constructor(gpa, credits){
this.gpa = gpa;
this.credits = credits;
}
stringGPA() {
return (this.gpa).toString();
}
get level() {
if (this.credits >= 90 ) {
return 'Senior';
} else if (this.credits >= 60) {
return 'Junior';
} else if (this.credits >= 30) {
return 'Sophomore';
} else {
return 'Freshman';
}
}
get major(){
this._major;
}
set major(x){
if (this.level === "Junior" || this.level === "Senior"){
this._major=x;
return this._major;
}else{
this._major=x;
return this._major= 'none';
}
}
}
var student = new Student(3.9, 60);
console.log(student.level);
student.major = 'CS';
console.log(student.major);

statement always return
s undefined
. Now, if you look at your relevant getter here:
get major(){
this._major;
}
You'll notice that there's no return
statement there. If you add a return
in front of this._major
, your code works for me. Great job!
