Courses Plus Student 13,126 Pointswhat's wrong with my code?
my code kept making an error. I can't get where my code's problem is.
const userNames = ['Samir', 'Angela', 'Beatrice', 'Shaniqua', 'Marvin', 'Sean']; // Result: [{name: 'Samir'}, {name: 'Shaniqua'}, {name:'Sean'}];
const users = userNames .filter( user => user.charAt(0) === 'S') .map( user => ({name}));
console.log(users);

const userNames = ['Samir', 'Angela', 'Beatrice', 'Shaniqua', 'Marvin', 'Sean'];
const users = userNames.filter( user => user.charAt(0) === 'S').map( user => ({name: user}));
