Task 185

Hello, @Coderslang_Master I'd like some assistance with task 185.

code below, by my understanding I should loop through the obj, check if a key is present, and return true/false.

How may I approach this differently?

export const isKeyPresent = (obj, key) => {
	for (key in obj) {
		if ('name' in obj) {
			return true;
		} else {
			return false;
		}
	}
};

output:

true
true

rudythealchemist your loop runs exactly one iteration. On this iteration you either return true or false.

You shouldn't return false until you've analyzed all of the object's keys.

Hello, haven't solved it yet.

rudythealchemist what does this if condition do?

if ('name' in obj)

Coderslang_Master I was checking if the name key exists, return true, else false.

rudythealchemist this task isn't about a specific key called name.

export const isKeyPresent = (obj, key) => {
...
}

You have an object obj and a property key. For each function invocation those will be different depending on the function arguments.

export const isKeyPresent = (obj, key) => {
for( const ky in obj){
if(key === ky){
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
