Hi hakan,

I'm going to tell you to re-watch the video because it explains variable hoisting better than I ever could. The answer to the code challenge is very simple. I think a lot of people complicate it; I know I did. Below is the answer.

Jeff

function elevatorCloseButton(pushed) {

var status;

    if (pushed) {
        status = "I'll close when I'm ready.";
    }

}

elevatorCloseButton(true);
