// Predict and explain first...

// Why will an error occur when this program runs?
// =============> write your prediction here
// Answer below:
// A syntax error will occur for two reasons, first because there variable const "decimalNumber" being redecleared
// The second reason is because the function "convertToPercentage" is not called correctly.

// Try playing computer with the example to work out what is going on
// =============> write your prediction here:
// Answer below:
// I predicted that the code will not work because of the variable (decimalNumber) inside the function,
// Also because the console.log(decimalNumber) is just a name that exist inside the function

const decimalNumber = 0.5;

// const decimalNumber = 0.5;
// const percentage = `${decimalNumber * 100}%`;

// return percentage;
// }
// console.log(decimalNumber);

// =============> write your explanation here
// Answer:

// const decimalNumber redeclares the parameter name which causes a SyntaxError.
// also console.log(decimalNumber) outside fails because the parameter only exists inside the function"

It's a safer practice to end every statement with a semicolon.

Indentation is not very consistent.

Have you installed the prettier VSCode extension and enabled "Format on save/paste" on VSCode,

  • Code submitted in a PR should be free of any debugging or unnecessary code. Instead of making them a comment, could you remove them to keep the code clean?

  • You could also consider using the String's built-in method .padStart().

To more precisely express a value is a string, we can enclose the value by a pair of double quotes. For example, "00".
