            Hey you’re right. But who would notice that… only a BOT! Dissenting opinion: a bot wouldn’t have forgotten the second space on your second-to-last line. oh wait…

          I have yet to profit from knowing Markdown formatting.

        Modern JavaScript style recommends using arrow functions for anything that doesn’t need a context. Consider adjusting your code to the arrow function syntax:

        const addNumbers = (a, b) => a + b;
        

        Not only is this syntax shorter, it also gives you the benefits of a constant function. You can use it the same way you did in your existing code:

        console.log(addNumbers(3, 5));  // Outputs: 8
