wrong error

I have tried this code challenge and keep getting the missing a function named arrayCounter, I am not certain my code is correct, but I did think I labeled the function correctly at least. Any help on this would be appreciated.

Since I may not be able to respond later today, I am posting a working version of the function. Spoiler Alert If you want to work through it more, feel free to not check this until you have tried more variations otherwise, you can compare your code to mine.

<script>
function arrayCounter( list ) {
        if(typeof list == 'string' || typeof list == 'number' || typeof list == 'undefined') {
            return 0;
        }
        else {
            return list.length; 
        }

      }
</script>
