Hey guy's so i created a function call nameString, with the parameter placeholder called (name)

When i put my own name in the parameter it give me the following error

ReferenceError: kevin is not defined, but i define the parameter when i am calling the function.

Code

var nameString = function (name) {
    return "Hi, I am" + " " + name;
    
};

nameString = kevin;

console.log (nameString);

Could anyone please help me out, i am a JS beginner but i am still getting more the hang of it.

Try calling the function like this:

Code

nameString(keven)

OR

nameString("Keven")

Not sure with or without ", been a long time since I used JS.

Thank's got it already and it is without the quotation marks.

Wrong section.

@Anon

nameString("Keven"); is correct.

@OP

nameString = "Kevin"; should fix it. Otherwise it's looking for a variable called "Kevin"

PHP Code


<?php 
var x = "I_am_a_string";
var I_am_a_string = x;
console.log(I_am_a_string); //I_am_a_string 


Works

PHP Code


<?php 
var x = I_am_a_string;
console.log(x); 


Does not work. You'd get an error like: "ReferenceError: kevin is not defined".
