Here are my directions:
On 'andrew' and 'ryan', set the 'greet' method as the 'genericGreet' function.
I've tried a few different iterations of what I thought would be correct, but I truly have no clue what I'm doing wrong. Here's what I have now:
<script>
var genericGreet = function() {
return "Hello, my name is " + this.name;
}
var andrew = {
name: "Andrew"
greet: andrew.genericGreet
}
var ryan = {
name: "Ryan"
greet: ryan.genericGreet
}
</script>
Thank you in advance!

Courses Plus Student 173 PointsI'm new to JS (very) but it looks like you need four semicolons as in the below.
var andrew = {
name: "Andrew";
greet: andrew.genericGreet;
}
var ryan = {
name: "Ryan";
greet: ryan.genericGreet;
}

7,008 PointsThank you, but that doesn't work. I still get "null" as a result. I've tried a hundred things I thought would be right and I've tried a hundred things out of left field. I'm just stuck on this one.

7,008 PointsUgh. Yes, it does.
Commas.
Stupid, f***ing, commas.
