Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 12,787 Pointsplease update this course. it is teaching the wrong information and out of date syntax for anonymous/arrow functions
Issue found: https://teamtreehouse.com/library/functions-as-parameters-4#questions this video is so old I spent 10 minutes looking at stack overflow and MDN trying to figure out why i was getting an error writing an anonymous function. he is instructing us to write an anonymous function as: hiAndBye(function ()=>{ console.log("greeting"); }); which is out of date and I was only able to figure out what was wrong after running it through multiple Javascript validators. Please fix this, it brought me loads of unnecessary frustration. I appreciate the amount of content you offer but this is just disappointing to say the least. Thank you

Treehouse StaffHey Elijah Pereira,
This course is actually very up to date since it’s one of the latest courses released. The reason your code isn’t working is because you’re using both the function keyword aswell as an => for an arrow function.
If you remove the function keyword (3:40 in the video) your code should start working as expected
Hope this helps
