// The last4Digits variable should store the last 4 digits of cardNumber

// However, the code isn't working
66
// Before running the code, make and explain a prediction about why the code won't work
77
// Then run the code and see what error it gives.
88
// Consider: Why does it give this error? Is this what I predicted? If not, what's different?

// Then try updating the expression last4Digits is assigned to, in order to get the correct value

// The error is because the slice method is being called on a number, but slice is a string method. To fix this, we can convert the cardNumber to a string before calling slice. I have fixed it by using the toString() method.
