function returnValue(value){ return value; } var echo = returnValue(1);

Then, task 3 says "Finally, from the returnValue function return the value passed in." But this function is returning the constant string "beans" instead of the passed argument.
Fix those and you should pass the challenge. And it doesn't look like you need to create a new "echo" variable or call the function for this challenge.
