587d7dac367417b2b2512b74	Use Dot Notation to Access the Properties of an Object	1	301333

--description--

The last challenge created an object with various properties. Now you'll see how to access the values of those properties. Here's an example:

let duck = {
  name: "Aflac",
  numLegs: 2
};
console.log(duck.name);
// This prints "Aflac" to the console

Dot notation is used on the object name, duck, followed by the name of the property, name, to access the value of "Aflac".

--instructions--

Print both properties of the dog object to your console.

--hints--

Your code should use console.log to print the value for the name property of the dog object.

assert(/console.log\(.*dog\.name.*\)/g.test(code));

Your code should use console.log to print the value for the numLegs property of the dog object.

assert(/console.log\(.*dog\.numLegs.*\)/g.test(code));

--seed--

--seed-contents--

let dog = {
  name: "Spot",
  numLegs: 4
};
// Only change code below this line

--solutions--

let dog = {
  name: "Spot",
  numLegs: 4
};
console.log(dog.name);
console.log(dog.numLegs);
