Idk what I’m doing wrong?
const player1 = {
name: 'Ashley',
color: 'purple',
isTurn: true,
play: function(){
// write code here.
if (this.isTurn == true){
console.log('${this[name]} is now playing');}
}
}

231,184 PointsThe instructions say: "Inside the if statement, return a string equal to the value of the name property followed by the string " is now playing!". Use bracket notation."
So the issues here are:
- this code is using console.log instead of returning the string
- template strings must be enclosed with accents ( ` ) instead of apostrophes ( ' )
- in bracket notation, the contents of the bracket must be a string with the name of the property
- the returned string must be exactly as shown, including punctuation
