17,062 Pointshow the teacher added sarah for example to the classrom set if he didnt declared sarah?
It's not an array of objects, i don't understand how he did it and why it's valid. another question is the syntax of the if statements where is the {}?

And an "if" can control either a code block (surrounded by braces), or a single statement. The braces aren't needed when the "if" is controlling a single statement.

17,062 PointsIt’s new to es6? another thing i want to ask is how i continue from here. i decided to do the full stack js track first and then the front end because i find it more interesting. i did all the courses until dom manipulation. we didn’t had any major projects in the new es6 syntax. i also want to be do some algo challenges which i don’t find a lot in the js track like in the python track for example.

There's lots of third-party challenge sites for more practice. One I've used is "codewars".
