--description--

A conditional statement can have an else clause, which runs code when the if condition is falsy. Here's an example of an if...else statement:

js
if (condition) {
  console.log("condition is truthy");
} else {
  console.log("condition is falsy");
}

Add an else clause to the existing if statement. Inside the body of your else clause, log "Timmy is not old enough to drive." to the console.

--hints--

Your third if statement should have an else clause.

js
assert.match(__helpers.removeJSComments(code), /const\s+timmyAge\s*\=\s*.+\bif\s*\(\s*timmyAge\s*>=\s*16\s*\)\s*\{\s*console\s*\.\s*log\s*\(\s*('|"|`)Timmy is old enough to drive.\1\s*\)\s*;?\s*\}\s+else\s+{/s);

You should log "Timmy is not old enough to drive." to the console within the body of your else clause.

js
assert.match(__helpers.removeJSComments(code), /const\s+timmyAge\s*\=\s*.+\bif\s*\(\s*timmyAge\s*>=\s*16\s*\)\s*\{\s*console\s*\.\s*log\s*\(\s*('|"|`)Timmy is old enough to drive.\1\s*\)\s*;?\s*\}\s+else\s+{\s*console\s*\.\s*log\s*\(\s*('|"|`)Timmy is not old enough to drive.\1\s*\)\s*;?\s*\}/s);

--seed--

--seed-contents--

js
const hasDeveloperJob = true;

if (hasDeveloperJob) {
  console.log("Timmy is employed as a developer.");
}

const isTimmyAGamer = false;

if (isTimmyAGamer) {
  console.log("Timmy loves to play World of Warcraft.");
}

const timmyAge = 18;

if (timmyAge >= 16) {
  console.log("Timmy is old enough to drive.");
