Uncaught SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list

I have created temp.js file and wrote that code inside it, typical like the lesson.

function  say(something) {
  console.log(something);
}

function exec(func, arg) {
  func(arg);
}
exec(say 'Hi, there');

then chrome's console shown this error message:

Uncaught SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list

injecting StackUp content script

I don't know where's the error, so anyone help, please. Thank you

Hi Muhamed, look at your exec call =) It takes 2 arguments, but your missing something between the two ;)
