--description--

You can use the same principle we just used to retrieve the last character in a string to retrieve the Nth-to-last character.

For example, you can get the value of the third-to-last letter of the const firstName = "Augusta" string by using firstName[firstName.length - 3]

Example:

const firstName = "Augusta";
const thirdToLastLetter = firstName[firstName.length - 3];

thirdToLastLetter would have a value of the string s.

--instructions--

Use bracket notation to find the second-to-last character in the lastName string.

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

--hints--

secondToLastLetterOfLastName should be the letter c.

assert(secondToLastLetterOfLastName === 'c');

You should use .length to get the second last letter.

assert(__helpers.removeJSComments(code).match(/\.length/g).length > 0);

--seed--

--after-user-code--​

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

--seed-contents--​

// Setup
const lastName = "Lovelace";

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

--solutions--

const lastName = "Lovelace";
const secondToLastLetterOfLastName = lastName[lastName.length - 2];
