Add all things to the end of the userName string. First, what is the name? That's wrong, you didn't tell the program what is the name. Second you can't use console.log(). The task didn't say to use it the console.log(). Just use what it asks. By the way, add to end of the userName the # symbol and after add to lastName variable and use again the .toUpperCase method. Hope this help!
