Answer 1

I'm not sure what you're looking for, but these are some potential issues:

1. string is an array of one element: "". string.length = 1.
2. You can't return string.push(i). The property .push adds a string to the end of an array. i isn't a string.

If you're still not satisfied, tell me what you're looking for.

Answer 2

i am trying to print out the largest string ,Initially i use split to convert the string into array then i denote the length of the array then i try to add that largest string to the variable string.

but some how as i am new to coading i am unable to write down my own logic

The variable longestWord is set to the first word. Then, a for loop checks each word to see if it is longer than the current longest word. If so, var longestWord is set to that word.
