--description--

When a function or method doesn't take any arguments, you may forget to include the (empty) opening and closing parentheses when calling it. Often times the result of a function call is saved in a variable for other use in your code. This error can be detected by logging variable values (or their types) to the console and seeing that one is set to a function reference, instead of the expected value the function returns.

The variables in the following example are different:

function myFunction() {
return "You rock!";
}
let varOne = myFunction;
let varTwo = myFunction();

Here varOne is the function myFunction, and varTwo is the string You rock!.

--instructions--

Fix the code so the variable result is set to the value returned from calling the function getNine.

--hints--

Your code should fix the variable result so it is set to the number that the function getNine returns.

assert(result == 9);

Your code should call the getNine function.

assert(__helpers.removeJSComments(code).match(/getNine\(\)/g).length == 2);

--seed-contents--

function getNine() {
let x = 6;
let y = 3;
return x + y;
}

let result = getNine;
console.log(result);

--solutions--

function getNine() {
let x = 6;
let y = 3;
return x + y;
}

let result = getNine();
console.log(result);
