I can't get past this exercise.

Think of a function as having four parts.

1. Declare the function using var, and then give it a name.
2. Then you must use the function keyword to tell the computer that you are making a function.
3. The bit in the parentheses is called theparameter. Think of it as a placeholder word that we give a specific value when we call the function. See the hint for more.
4. Then write your block of reusable code between { }. Every line of code in this block must end with a ;.

Syntax
var functionName = function() { code code code; code code code; (more lines of code); };
Let's say you want to print a greeting each time a person walks past your desk. And you want to personalize that greeting with their name. Typing out:
console.log("Hello, Betty");

console.log("Hello, Laura");

and so on for each person will take forever!

1. On line 11, call the greeting function and put in a name that you want the greeting function to include.
2. Press Run and see the function get into action! Saves you so much time.

Hide hint

When we want to join together two strings, we put a plus sign.
console.log("Hey" + "you") will print out Heyyou. That's not what we want!
If you want a space between words, you must add that space as well!
console.log("Hey" + " " + "you") will print out Hey you
This joining of strings is calledconcatenation

//Below is the greeting function
//See line 7
//We can join strings together using the plus sign +
//See the hint for more details about how this

var greeting = function (name) {
console.log("Great to see you," + " " + name);
};

//On line 11, call the greeting function!

console.log("function" + " " + "Betsy")

II'm not sure how to call the greeting function. I need to see some more examples to understand this. I love code academy but Im stumped lol

For others, it can be found here: http://www.codecademy.com/courses/ja...#!/exercises/2

The previous section (Section 2: Introducing Functions) tells you how to call a function, example: divideByThree(6);

So you'd do:
greeting ("James T. Kirk");

Thank you so much I understand now I'm not supposed to print the console.log but call the greeting and the greeting in the case is equal to "great to see you" thank you so much I am just learning javascript something I probably should of done a long time ago.
