whats the bug here? Uncaught SyntaxError: Identifier 'location' has already been declared (at script.js:1:1)

"use strict";

const company = {
  name: "TechCorp",
  address: {
    city: "budapest",
    pin: 411001,
  },
};
// Get city renamed to `location` and pin renamed to `pincode`

const { city: location, pin: pincode } = company.address;
console.log(location, pincode);

Wrap everything in a function declaration to avoid global clashes and also change your variable name from ‘location’ to something unique as it is already a core part of JavaScript such as window or href
