 ## Working Through the Problems
 
 If you open up `test/indexTest.js`, you will see the tasks in front of you:
 
-+ `companyName` - Inside the `test/indexTest.js` file, look inside of the word `describe` where the tests are trying to indicate that this test is describing the `companyName` variable. The `it` word that comes afterwards, tells us the features of `companyName`. In the first `it` function call, it says that `it` (companyName) `is set as Scuber`. In the next line, you can see that the test checks to make sure this occurs by seeing if `companyName` equals `Scuber`. So this means that you need to go to your `index.js` file and declare a variable named `companyName` and set it equal to `Scuber`. Once you do that, if `learn` is running, you will see the first test in this lab as passing.
-+ In the next `it` function call, we are still describing `companyName`. This time, it says it `raises error if the companyName is changed`. The next line of code tests this. It's ok if some of the code in that line is confusing. Just know that the code attempts to change `companyName` to a different value, and that this reassignment should throw an error. So you need to make sure that you are using the correct type of variable declaration such that attempting to reassign the variable throws an error.
-+ `mostProfitableNeighborhood` - Here we need to declare another variable, `mostProfitableNeighborhood` and assign to it the string `'Chelsea'`. In the next `it` function call, you can see that our tests ensure that `mostProfitableNeighborhood` does not throw an error when reassigned. So you need to make sure that you are using the correct type of variable declaration such that assigning a new value to `mostProfitableNeighborhood` doesn't throw an error.
-+ `companyCeo` - Here, we are getting more practice with declaring variables. Once again, a reassignment should not throw an error.
++ `companyName` - Inside the `test/indexTest.js` file, look inside of the word `describe` where the tests are trying to indicate that this test is describing the `companyName` variable.

Once you do that, run `learn` and you will see the first test in this lab is passing.
++ In the next `it` function call, we are still describing `companyName`. This time, it says it `is defined as a const`. The next line of code tests this. So you need to make sure that you are using the correct type of variable declaration such that attempting to reassign the variable throws an error.
++ `mostProfitableNeighborhood` - Here we need to declare another variable, `mostProfitableNeighborhood` and assign to it the string `'Chelsea'`.
