JavaScript JavaScript Foundations Arrays Methods: Part 2

The code challenge says me that the task one is no longer passing, but i did'nt modify it.

When i remove my answer to the task 2, the task 1 works again, but i don't understand why. To my opinion my response to the task 2 looks good.

Thanks for your attention,

Cheers

You misspelled function inside your sort parameter.

You misspelled "function" as "fonction". I don't know why you get that error though ^^'

Ah, you misunderstand me, what I meant was, "I don't know why you get (got now) that error message" XD

OK ^^ I read too quickly.

I don't understand either, it's not the first time i had this error message, and everytime it was just syntax issue, bug ?

You typically get a Task 1 isn't passing error when there are syntax errors in the code. The Challenge Engine can't process anything if there is a syntax error, including Task 1.

Happy coding,
