## Description
|
|
<section id='description'>
|
|
In order to get the last letter of a string, you can subtract one from the string's length.
|
|
For example, if <code>var firstName = "Charles"</code>, you can get the value of the last letter of the string by using <code>firstName[firstName.length - 1]</code>.

## Instructions

|
<section id='instructions'>
|
|
Use <dfn>bracket notation</dfn> to find the last character in the <code>lastName</code> variable.

|
<strong>Hint</strong><br>Try looking at the <code>lastLetterOfFirstName</code> variable declaration if you get stuck.
