Freecodecamp: Correct Answer not Recognized

[amolinasf]

Challenge Stand in Line has an issue.
User Agent is: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_10_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/49.0.2623.110 Safari/537.36.

It appears that the array is modified correctly and the correct value is returned, yet the third success requirement is not satisfied.

My code:

function nextInLine(arr, item) {
  // Your code here
  testArr.push(item);
  var removed = testArr.shift(arr);
  return removed;
    // Change this line
}

// Test Setup
var testArr = [5,6,7,8,9];

// Display Code
console.log("Before: " + JSON.stringify(testArr));
console.log(nextInLine(testArr, 1)); // Modify this line to test
console.log("After: " + JSON.stringify(testArr));

@amolinasf Hint: I would double check what arrays you are modifying in your function. In general, code issues are not handled on GitHub unless there is a bug with the site. Please take all coding questions to the Help Room. Happy coding!

Hi, did you resolve this? Im getting the same error.

function nextInLine(arr, item) {
var addNum= testArr.push(item);
var removeNum= testArr.shift();// Your code here

return removeNum; // Change this line
}

// Test Setup
var testArr = [5,6,7,8,9];

// Display Code
console.log("Before: " + JSON.stringify(testArr));
console.log(nextInLine(testArr, 1)); // Modify this line to test
console.log("After: " + JSON.stringify(testArr));

Apparently you need to use arr instead of testArr

Help! I have a similar problem. This is my code :

`function nextInLine(arr, item) {
// Your code here
arr.push(6);
return item = arr.shift(); // Change this line
}

// Test Setup
var testArr = [1,2,3,4,5];

// Display Code
console.log("Before: " + JSON.stringify(testArr));
console.log(nextInLine(testArr, 6)); // Modify this line to test
console.log("After: " + JSON.stringify(testArr));
`
