JavaScript Object-Oriented JavaScript Getters and Setters Creating Getter Methods

Keep getting the "Bummer: Unidentified identity" error

It asks:

Inside the Student class, create an empty getter method called level().

I did just that, but I ended up with an error. What did I do wrong?

creating_getters.js 
class Student {
    constructor(gpa, credits){
        this.gpa = gpa;
        this.credits = credits;
    }

    stringGPA() {
        return this.gpa.toString();
    }
        get level() { }

const student = new Student(3.9);

Hi Nikki,

You deleted the closing brace for the the Class. Just put that back and the rest is good.

Note: Watch your spacing and lines when coding. While JavaScript doesn't mind whitespace, it makes readability much easier for others if you follow the conventions of the language you are working in. Here, the getter method should be spaced one line empty line below the other method and the indent should also match the other methods.

So...

stringGPA() {
   return this.gpa.toString();
}
   get level() { }

should be...

stringGPA() {
   return this.gpa.toString();
}

get level() { }

Keep Coding! :) :dizzy:
