Tell us what’s happening:
18. After you click #sort-btn, #array-container should contain as many div elements as the steps required by the Bubble Sort algorithm to sort the starting array, including the div representing the starting array and a div representing the sorted array.
My code is able to pass everything except 18 and I don’t know what is the issue here. I’m also not sure what exactly 18 is asking for. I think I have the correct number of div element here under array-container. I also give the final div array the same style as the one in the example project. Can’t figure out what is missing in my code.
Your code so far
