Getting an error on line "41" out of 40 total lines, need help!

I've gone back to strip all my code out to make sure it isn't the issue, the basic 3_deck.js file has the following error message when run:

treehouse:~/workspace$ node 3_deck.js
/home/treehouse/workspace/3_deck.js:41
});
^

Those characters don't show up anywhere on screen and can't be scrolled to or accessed. I've tried copy and pasting the code to a new file, still no luck.

Your file may not contain those characters but perhaps it should. Maybe node is telling you that it expected to see those but they were missing.

If that's not the issue, make a snapshot of your workspace and post the link to it here to allow a complete analysis.
