What does it mean to have an "Assignment to Constant Variable error " ??????
please help me out with this.
const name = "Andrew";
const details = { favouriteLanguage: "JavaScript", age: 33, children: 3 }
const errorMessage = "Something bad has occurred";
console.log(name = "Andrew" );
console.dir({favoriteLanguage: "JavaScript" , age:33,children: 3});
console.error('Something bas has occured');

Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 33,900 PointsHi B V K Mahijendra,
the error tells you that you cannot assign a new value to a CONST variable.
You can only change the value of LET variables.
Have you learned about the differences of let and const yet? If not, have a look at it.
Hope that helps.
Happy coding, Nils
PS: Basically to solve this you just put the variable name (without the value) in the console.log.
