bd7993c9c69feddfaeb8bdef	Store Multiple Values in one Variable using JavaScript Arrays	1

Description

With JavaScript array variables, we can store several pieces of data in one place. You start an array declaration with an opening square bracket, end it with a closing square bracket, and put a comma between each entry, like this: var sandwich = ["peanut butter", "jelly", "bread"].

Instructions

Modify the new array myArray so that it contains both a string and a number (in that order). Hint
Refer to the example code in the text editor if you get stuck.

Tests

- text: <code>myArray</code> should be an <code>array</code>.
  testString: 'assert(typeof myArray == ''object'', ''<code>myArray</code> should be an <code>array</code>.'');'
- text: The first item in <code>myArray</code> should be a <code>string</code>.
  testString: 'assert(typeof myArray[0] !== ''undefined'' && typeof myArray[0] == ''string'', ''The first item in <code>myArray</code> should be a <code>string</code>.'');'
- text: The second item in <code>myArray</code> should be a <code>number</code>.
  testString: 'assert(typeof myArray[1] !== ''undefined'' && typeof myArray[1] == ''number'', ''The second item in <code>myArray</code> should be a <code>number</code>.'');'

Challenge Seed

// Example
var ourArray = ["John", 23];

// Only change code below this line.
var myArray = [];

After Test

console.info('after the test');

Solution

var myArray = ["The Answer", 42];
