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

// However, the code isn't working
68
// Before running the code, make and explain a prediction about why the code won't work
79
// Then run the code and see what error it gives.

// Consider: Why does it give this error? Is this what I predicted? If not, what's different?
911
// Then try updating the expression last4Digits is assigned to, in order to get the correct value
12+
13+
// initial prediction:
14+
// I don't think the code will work because cardNumber is a number, and the slice method is a string method.
15+
16+
// The error I get is: TypeError: cardNumber.slice is not a function
17+
18+
// This error is happening because the slice method is being called on a number,
19+
// which does not have the slice method. The slice method is only available for strings and arrays.
