// Predict and explain first...
// Why will an error occur when this program runs?
// =============> write your prediction here
// The error will occur because the variable 'decimalNumber' is being redeclared.
// Try playing computer with the example to work out what is going on
/*
function convertToPercentage(decimalNumber) {
const decimalNumber = 0.5;
const percentage = `${decimalNumber * 100}%`;
return percentage;
}
console.log(decimalNumber);
*/
// =============> write your explanation here
// The parameter decimalNumber is already declared as part of the function.
// When we try to declare it again inside the function, it causes a syntax error because
// we cannot redeclare a variable that is already declared in the same scope.
// Finally, correct the code to fix the problem
// =============> write your new code here
function convertToPercentage(decimalNumber) {
const percentage = `${decimalNumber * 100}%`;
return percentage;
}
console.log(convertToPercentage(0.5));
