Using the unshift method, add the string "celery" to the beginning of the array.

Not sure what I did wrong for this task.

array.rb 
grocery_list = ["milk", "eggs", "bread", "carrots"]
arr.unshift(0) #=> ["celery"]

Hi Calvin,

In the first part of the challnge, you want to use push to add "carrots" to the array. Next, you want to call unshift on the array called grocery_list. Try something like:

grocery_list = ["milk", "eggs", "bread"]
grocery_list.push("carrots")
grocery_list.unshift("celery")

I hope that helps,

Steve.
