class Pet { constructor(animal, age, breed, sound) { this.animal = animal; this.age = age; this.breed = breed; this.sound = sound; }
speak() { console.log(this.sound); }
}
const ernie = new Pet('dog', 1, 'pug', 'yip yip'); const vera = new Pet('dog', 8, 'border collie', 'woof woof');
ernie.speak(); vera.speak();
error code is
module.js:550
throw err;

My file name is pet.js and I am using node Pet.js to access it.

Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 8,157 PointsI made a capitalizing error. when I followed the video I didn't capitalize the new folder but when I was working in the console I was following the video and using a capital for the node Pet.js. when I use pet.js as my file folder is lowercase it works as intended.

Also, the workspace file system is case-sensitive, so "pet.js" would not match "Pet.js".
For future issues, please use a snapshot to allow us to check out the issue fully. Here is a video about sharing a snapshot of your workspace.
