JavaScript Object-Oriented JavaScript Getters and Setters Creating Getter Methods

Senior, Junior, Sophomore, Freshman get question.

I'm not sure what my code is doing wrong. It says: Bummer: output is not defined.

It should be a string, right?

Any help would be appreciated!

creating_getters.js 
class Student {
    constructor(gpa, credits){
        this.gpa = gpa;
        this.credits = credits;
    }

  get level () {
    let grade = "";
    if (this.credits > 90) grade += "Senior";
    if (this.credits <= 90 && this.credits >= 61 ) grade += "Junior";
    if (this.credits <= 60 && this.credits >= 31 ) grade += "Sophomore";
    if (this.credits <= 30) output += "Freshman";

    return grade;
  }

    stringGPA() {
        return this.gpa.toString();
    }
}

const student = new Student(3.9);

Hi Jonathan,

In the part of your code where you’re trying to set the grade to “Freshmen”, you’re not using the grade variable. You’re trying to use a variable you’ve named output, but output has not been defined before that point.
