The issue is that you console.log a function that doesn't return a value but prints; in your main function you have console.log(....... a function that also prints). To solve this you can change your console.log(amount * rate); -> return amount * rate; in your convert() function

Just remove the console.log inside your main function because you are returning nothing inside converter function, that’s why it is printing undefined Else you can change your console.log inside convert for this: return amount * rate And mantain the console.log in main

Guillem Padilla so I should use 'return' instead of 'console.log'
