Why is this stuff not covered in videos before we are tested on it?

we were not told that typeof could be used with anything but undefined that I remember in previous videos, but the last challenge asks us to do just that. It also requires that we pass multiple arguments into an if statement which is different than we have ever seen. I passed the challenge, but had to ask for help in the forum to do so. This makes me feel like I am missing something. Am I wrong, or do these videos need to be appended? (This question is more for the Treehouse staff than other member users).

The JavaScript Foundations course is an older version of what is now JavaScript Basics and Loops, Arrays, and Methods, If you're have problems going through foundations I would suggest trying the JavaScript Basics class. Its the Same Material just updated. I hope this helps.
