Courses Plus Student 6,939 PointsI'm getting a "Unexpected token ILLEGAL" error on line 29. I feel like the code and syntax is correct.
I feel like my syntax and code are correct. Where am I going wrong?
const todos = [
{
todo: 'Buy apples',
done: false
},
{
todo: 'Wash car',
done: true
},
{
todo: 'Write web app',
done: false
},
{
todo: 'Read MDN page on JavaScript arrays',
done: true
},
{
todo: 'Call mom',
done: false
}
];
let unfinishedTasks;
// unfinishedTasks should be: ["Buy apples", "Write web app", "Call mom"]
// Write your code below
unfinishedTasks = todos
.filter(task => task.done == 'false')
.map(task => `${task.todo}`);

5,691 PointsThe problem is in the method filter. like Calyton said, you're comparing a string to a boolean. Write false with no quotes. The template literal at map is not intervening, but it's unnecessary in this case. task.todo would be enough.
