Challenge: Write a Function – My Name

Task

Implement a function to output a sentence:

Name the function myName.
The function should accept one argument, name.
The myName function body should contain a console.log() statement that prints the sentence "My name is {name}".
Call the myName function three times with different names.


              1234567
            
function ___(___) {
  console.log("My name is", ___);
};

myName("___");
myName("___");
myName("___");

The output should be:

python

Function definition: function funcName(argument) {}.
Place the argument name inside the console.log() function.
Call the function with different names (choose them yourself).
Call the funcName function after defining it using the funcName(value) syntax.


              1234567
            
function myName(name) {
  console.log("My name is", name);
}

myName("Ashley");
myName("Ervin");
myName("Mabel");
