// Predict and explain first...
// Why will an error occur when this program runs?
// =============> write your prediction here
//The program will return undefined because the console log which is outside the function is calling a local variable within the function scope
// Try playing computer with the example to work out what is going on
// function convertToPercentage(decimalNumber) {
// const decimalNumber = 0.5;
// const percentage = `${decimalNumber * 100}%`;
// return percentage;
// }
// console.log(decimalNumber);
// =============> write your explanation here
// The program did not return undefined on first call, but rather returned an identifier redeclaration syntaxerror. However when corrected without variable redeclaration, it returns undefined because console.log(decimalNumber) is not defined.
// Finally, correct the code to fix the problem
// =============> write your new code here
function convertToPercentage(decimalNumber) {
decimalNumber = 0.5;
const percentage = `${decimalNumber * 100}%`;
return percentage;
}
console.log(convertToPercentage());
