please help me with code

http://teamtreehouse.com/library/javascript-basics-2/storing-and-tracking-information-with-variables/using-string-methods

Complete the assignment to the userName variable by adding a # symbol followed by an all uppercase version of the lastName variable. In other words, using string concatenation so that the final value of userName is "23188XTR#SMITH”.

var id = "23188xtr"; var lastName = "Smith";

var userName id.toUpperCase();

You need to use the assignment operator = first to assign the value to the variable. Then concatenate the strings together with the +. 

var id = "23188xtr"; var lastName = "Smith";

var userName = id.toUpperCase() + '#' + lastName.toUpperCase();
