Trouble with for in loop

Bummer: There was an error with your code: ReferenceError: Strict mode forbids implicit creation of global property 'prop'
script.js

var shanghai = { population: 14.35e6, longitude: '31.2000 N', latitude: '121.5000 E', country: 'CHN' }; for (prop in shanghai) { console.log(prop); }

script.js 
var shanghai = {
  population: 14.35e6,
  longitude: '31.2000 N',
  latitude: '121.5000 E',
  country: 'CHN'
};
for (prop in shanghai) {
  console.log(prop);
}

You need to assign prop as a variable.

for (const prop in shanghai) {
  console.log(prop);
}
