It says undefined because nothing get returned by the function sayHi ; and you are displaying the return of the function.

function sayHi() {
  console.log('Hello');
}

console.log(sayHi());

function sayHi2() {
  console.log('Hello');
  
  return 'returned value';
}

console.log(sayHi2());

Because you console.log() your console.log().

You only need to call instructor.sayHi() or your sayHi function should return a string that you console.log().

He's displaying the return of the function `sayHi`, not the `console.log` – Orelsanpls Oct 15 '18 at 16:33
