Bummer: Cannot read property '1' of null
I keep getting that error. The question is :Below role, create a new variable named msg that combines the firstName, lastName and role variables to create a string like "Carlos Salgado: developer".
My answer is :
let firstName = "Mohammed"; let lastName = "Esak"; let role = 'developer';
let msg = firstName " " + lastName ":" + role;

let msg = firstName " " + lastName ":" + role; // as originally posted
let msg = firstName + " " + lastName + ": " + role; // fixed
