Freecodecamp: [beta] Clarify instruction for "Basic Data Structures: Access an Array's Contents Using Bracket Notation"

[Greenheart]

Challenge access-an-arrays-contents-using-bracket-notation has an issue.

Hey, Contributor!

In the final paragraph of the instruction, I think the contents of the parenthesis could be slightly clarified.

I suggest we change "(1st index)" to (index 1), as "1st index" could be interpreted as the first index of an array - index 0.

If you want to fix this, please read CONTRIBUTING.md to get started.

When you're all set, replace this line with the following, and make your commit.

"In order to complete this challenge, set the 2nd position (index <code>1</code>) of <code>myArray</code> to anything you want, besides <code>\"b\"</code>."

If you have any questions, please come chat with us in the Contributors Chat Room.

Happy Coding :smile:

@Greenheart agreed! Looks like we're on a first-timers-only roll tonight!

[Greenheart]

@no-stack-dub-sack Indeed! More to come in the coming days :smile:

This should probably be a first-timers-only as well, if we add better instructions.

I would like to fix this issue.

It isn't showing as completed, with a green check mark. though all tests do pass.

@rudolphh Could you post your code here, to help us reproduce? :blush:

[rudolphh]

let myArray = ["a", "b", "c", "d"];
// change code below this line
myArray[1] = "h";
//change code above this line
console.log(myArray);

@rudolphh Thanks!

I can get this code to pass in both Firefox 51 and Chrome 56. Can try if it works after doing a hard refresh of the challenge page (CRTL+SHIFT+R) and then pressing the "Reset"-button? :blush:

However I noticed another issue - the messages for the test cases needs to be updated (I'll submit a quick PR for this right away).

[rudolphh]

did the hard refresh and reset. still the same. using chrome 56
