Turn over a card

What we are doing

The first move of the game: take the top card of the stock, turn it face up and put it on the waste. flipStock does exactly that.

```js
function flipStock() {
  if (piles.stock.length) {
    const card = piles.stock.pop()
    card.up = true
    piles.waste.push(card)
  }
}
```

What it means

• if (piles.stock.length) is true when the stock has cards (0 counts as false).
• pop() removes the last card of an array and returns it; push puts it at the end of the waste.

Your turn

Under cardY, leave an empty line and write flipStock. Press Run.
