I passed the first part of the challenge but I've been attempting the second part and now it says the first step is no longer correct. Does anyone know why?

saying1.reverse();
saying2.sort(fuction());

2,301 PointsI fixed the miss spelling but it's still saying the first task is no longer working. <script> var saying1 = ["The", "quick", "brown", "fox", "jumps", "over", "the", "lazy", "dog"]; var saying2 = ["The", "quick", "brown", "fox", "jumped", "over", "the", "lazy", "dog's", "back"]; saying1.reverse(); saying2.sort(function.length()); </script>

7,056 PointsI must admit that I'm not familiar enough with JavaScript to explain how it work (the sort function seems odd to me), but the solution is:
saying2.sort(function (a,b){return a.length-b.length});
I hope that helps.
