Possible bug in array Javascript challenge

Hello,

I was doing some array challenge in Javascript that can be found here https://teamtreehouse.com/library/javascript-loops-arrays-and-objects/tracking-multiple-items-with-arrays/using-array-indices

It appears that I can do the first step of the challenge but it doesn't let me get through the second one

var players = ['Jim', 'Shawna', 'Andrew', 'Lora', 'Aimee', 'Nick'];

console.log(players[0]);

However, when asked to get the last item ( which is Index number 5 ) by simply changing the index number from 0 to 5 in my code, but I get an error. I tried all index numbers in case they didn't make the test right but it still doesn't work.

I tried to report the bug but I got an automated response so I need to put it here.

They're not asking you to replace the first one, you need to console.log(players[5]); underneath the first request.

Thanks! The test makers didn't specify you had to insert it under the previous task's code which is confusing ---- >"Now, use console.log() to log out the last item in the array."
