7,003 PointsConverting to a string
I'm not sure what is being asked in this video.. how would i convert the stringGPA method to a string and return it?
class Student {
constructor(gpa, stringGPA){
this.gpa = gpa;
this.stringGPA = stringGPA;
}
stringGPA() {
string(this.stringGPA);
}
}
const student = new Student(3.9);

2,207 PointsHey Chanel, So you start out the problem like this,
class Student {
constructor(gpa){
this.gpa = gpa;
}
}
const student = new Student(3.9);
- They ask you to make a method so no need to create 'this.stringGPA' in line 4. The method will be outside the constructor function but inside the class like so.
class Student {
constructor(gpa){
this.gpa = gpa;
}
stringGPA() {
}
}
const student = new Student(3.9);
- You were close on your method but you used 'string' in string(this.gpa) should be capitalized (String) and what you are converting to a string is the gpa value which is a number at the beginning. Should look like this.
class Student {
constructor(gpa){
this.gpa = gpa;
}
stringGPA() {
return this.gpa.toString(); //or String(this.gpa) either works
}
}
const student = new Student(3.9);
Hope that helps.
