9,668 PointsHello Jin, I believe your answer is not working bacause they ask us to use the increment (unary I believe) operator, in order to assign in one operation the result to the constant totalScore while showing the same value on both, the variable and constant.
Here is mine and is working:
var initialScore = 8
let totalScore = ++initialScore
