Returning a string

Instead of logging out the full name, modify the code so it returns the string instead. Please help me in this.

object.js 
var contact = {
  firstName: "Andrew",
  lastName: "Chalkley",
  fullName: function(){
    console.log(this.firstName + " " + this.lastName);
  var finalName = contact.fullName();
    return finalName;
  }
}

You don't have to add anything to the code, it's just asking you to modify the existing code. So instead of console.log() you just need to return it like this:

return this.firstName + " " + this.lastName;
