What is wrong in this Javascript code? It appears under the Arrays tutorial, question 10

var beverages=new Array("Coke","Sprite","7-UP","Pepsi"); document.write(beverages.unshift("Diet Coke"));

I saw a post dated 2 weeks ago where popo12(6,110 points) said he/she had answered the question but the response does not show up.  HELP!!

Hi,

Can you give me more details about the issue?

I've tried the exercise and got the following result:

js> var beverages=new Array("Coke","Sprite","7-UP","Pepsi");
var beverages=new Array("Coke","Sprite","7-UP","Pepsi");
js> document.write(beverages.unshift("Diet Coke"));

Is your output different from mine?

Thanks, you have the right code but I think you have the wrong answer.  Isn't the "unshift" supposed to place Diet Coke at the beginning of the array? In any case, when I input the code it just repeats itself three times but does not yield a result or allow me to move on to the next question.  So I am stuck.
I copied your code into the exercise box and didn't get anything out of it. no answer no nothing.
I am having the same issue, no response other than repeat itself. Some previous instructions showed same behaviour. All in javascript tutorial. Is there any answer from the site?
