Your code so far

const vowels = ["a", "e", "o", "u", "i"];
function getVowelCount(sentence) {
  let count = 0;

  for (const char of sentence.toLowerCase()) {
    if (vowels.includes(char)) {
      count++;
    }
  }
  return count;
}

const vowelCount = getVowelCount("Apples are tasty fruits");
console.log(`Vowel Count: ${vowelCount}`);

function getConsonantCount(sentence) {
  const consonants = "bcdfghjklmnpqrstvwxyz";
  let count = 0;

  for (const char of sentence.toLowerCase()) {
    if (consonants.includes(char)) {
      count++;
    }
  }
  return count;
}

const consonantCount = getConsonantCount("Coding is fun");
console.log(`Consonant Count: ${consonantCount}`);

function getPunctuationCount(sentence) {
  const punctuations = ".,!?;:-()[]{}\"'–";
  let count = 0;

  for (const char of sentence) {
    if (punctuations.includes(char)) {
      count++;
    }
  }
  return count;
}

const punctuationCount = getPunctuationCount("WHAT?!?!?!?!?");
console.log(`Punctuation Count: ${punctuationCount}`);

hi @yyjhpqmdbw

It is great that you solved the challenge, but instead of posting your full working solution, it is best to stay focused on answering the original poster’s question(s) and help guide them with hints and suggestions to solve their own issues with the challenge. How to Help Someone with Their Code Using the Socratic Method

We are trying to cut back on the number of spoiler solutions found on the forum and instead focus on helping other campers with their questions and definitely not posting full working solutions.

Oh! I didn’t mean to, it didn’t pass the test the code I wrote, just curious about why not. Apologies.
