# --description--

Functions are special tools that allow you to run sections of code at specific times. You can declare functions using the `function` keyword. Here is an example of a function called `functionName` - note the opening and closing curly braces. These indicate the section of code that is within the function.

```js
function functionName() {

}
```

Create an empty function named `goStore`. This will match the `goStore` variable you used earlier.

# --hints--

You should declare `goStore` with the `function` keyword.

```js
assert.match(code, /function\s*goStore()/);
```

`goStore` should be defined.

```js
assert.isDefined(goStore);
```

`goStore` should be a function.

```js
assert.isFunction(goStore);
```

`goStore` should be an empty function.

```js
assert.equal(goStore.toString(), "function goStore() {}");
```
