810 PointsTemplate literals
Just out of curiosity, why are you using template literals instead of user.name and user.age?

Courses Plus Student 17,662 Pointstemplate literals are strings with dynamic elements within them. its like a kind of short hand, it just makes writing strings a lot faster. instead of concatenating user.name + " is " + user.age + " years old", you can just simply add the elements inline using template literals `${user.name} is ${user.age} years old`.
