--description--

You can also use bracket notation to get the character at other positions within a string.

Remember that computers start counting at 0, so the first character is actually the zeroth character.

Example:

const firstName = "Ada";
const secondLetterOfFirstName = firstName[1];

secondLetterOfFirstName would have a value of the string d.

--instructions--

Let's try to set thirdLetterOfLastName to equal the third letter of the lastName variable using bracket notation.

Hint: Try looking at the example above if you get stuck.

--hints--

The thirdLetterOfLastName variable should have the value of v.

assert(thirdLetterOfLastName === 'v');

You should use bracket notation.

assert(__helpers.removeJSComments(code).match(/thirdLetterOfLastName\s*=\s*lastName\s*\[\s*\d\s*\]/));

--seed--

--after-user-code--​

(function(v){return v;})(thirdLetterOfLastName);

--seed-contents--​

// Setup
const lastName = "Lovelace";

// Only change code below this line
const thirdLetterOfLastName = lastName; // Change this line

--solutions--

const lastName = "Lovelace";
const thirdLetterOfLastName = lastName[2];
