My code works on console but never works on the challenge page . It is so frustrating.

Here is my code: 

const authors = [
  { firstName: "Beatrix", lastName: "Potter" },
  { firstName: "Ann", lastName: "Martin" },
  { firstName: "Beverly", lastName: "Cleary" },
  { firstName: "Roald", lastName: "Dahl" },
  { firstName: "Lewis", lastName: "Carroll" }
];
let fullAuthorNames;
fullAutorNames = authors.map(function(author){ 
   return author.firstName + " " + author.lastName
});
app.js 
const authors = [
  { firstName: "Beatrix", lastName: "Potter" },
  { firstName: "Ann", lastName: "Martin" },
  { firstName: "Beverly", lastName: "Cleary" },
  { firstName: "Roald", lastName: "Dahl" },
  { firstName: "Lewis", lastName: "Carroll" }
];
let fullAuthorNames;
fullAutorNames = authors.map(function(author){ 
   return author.firstName + " " + author.lastName
});

// fullAuthorNames should be: ["Beatrix Potter", "Ann Martin", "Beverly Cleary", "Roald Dahl", "Lewis Carroll"]
// Write your code below

You just have a little typo/spelling error: This code is putting the result in a variable named "fullAutorNames" (with no "h") but the variable that the challenge is expecting the result in is " fullAuthorNames" (with the "h").

Those "little things" can often be the most frustrating! And a different variable name is exactly the kind of thing the console won't care about but the challenge will.
