The challenge here was to compare the length of two element. It would have been easier to just compare element1.length and element2.length with no need to use a for loop since you can get the length of a string directly with the ".length()" property. Then you only return the one that is longer (if element1.length < element2.length return element2)

if (hacker1.length > hacker2.length){
console.log(`The Driver has the longest name, it has ${hacker1.length} characters`)
} else if (hacker1.length < hacker2.length){
console.log(`Yo, navigator got the longest name, it has ${hacker2.length} characters`)
} else {}
console.log(`wow, you both got equally long names, ${hacker2.length} characters!!`)
}

//loop drivers name
for(let i = 0; i < hacker1.length; i++){
console.log(`${hacker1[i]}`)
}

//loops driver name backwards
for(let i = hacker.length; i > 0; i--){

here for 'samuel' backwards you'd get 'amuel', missing the first letter. To reach the first letter you need to iterate backwards and set the condition of the for loop (the middle statement) to also equal 0, just like this:

for(let i = hacker.length; i >= 0; i--) You only forgot to add the equal symbol

console.log(`${hacker1[i]}`)
}



//loop on first letter..
for(let i = 0; i < 1; i++){
if (hacker1[0] === "a"){
console.log(`The driver's name goes first`)
} else if (hacker2[0] === "a"){
console.log(`Yo, the navigator goes first definitely`)
} else {}
console.log(`What?! You both got the same name?`)
}
