--description--

There is repetition in the goTown and goStore functions. When you have repetition in code, it is a sign that you need a new function.

Above the goTown function, create an empty function called update. This time the function should take a parameter named location so data can be passed into the function when it is called.

Here is an example of a function named testFun that accepts a parameter named param:

function testFun(param) {
  console.log(param);
}

--hints--

See description above for instructions.

assert(update.toString().match(/function update\(\s*location\)\s*\{\s*\}/));
