Remove last "return" statement

[AkiraLaine]

Waypoint: Chaining If Else Statements

My code is all correct but it didn't want to pass. The error was "You should have five return statements" - so I removed the "change me" return statement and it passed.
But the instructions don't tell you to remove the last return statement.

My code:

function myTest(num) {
  // Only change code below this line
  if(num < 5){
    return "Tiny";
  } else if (num < 10){
    return "Small";
  } else if (num < 15){
    return "Medium";
  } else if(num < 20){
    return "Large";
  } else if(num >= 20){
    return "Huge";
  }
  return "Change Me"; //We need to remove this to pass
  // Only change code above this line
}

// Change this value to test
myTest(7);

Is there any reason why we are expliclity testing for 5 return statements? If not, i think we should remove it.

I'd agree with @DDaems that the return test is not necessary. If the code returns the correct answer and passes the if/else number tests that test isn't important.

I would change it to > 5 rather than === 5

@SaintPeter then anyone who would have exactly five would not pass either.

To remain as accurate as possible, I would change it to >= 5. Otherwise, if you want to keep it as >5, then we need to change the description to say "You should have more than five return statements."

@pmbenjamin : You are right my fix 63f324c actually has >=5

@smrajagopal, good enough for me!
