}I am working with this piece of code, which can be easily expanded by adding elements to the arrays. However, I am looking to create a system where users can contribute to it and then execute the updated version.
After attempting to add new descriptions and encountering an error message when running the program:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined
I'm puzzled as to why it's indicating that the variable is undefined, considering it should be globally accessible.
