Challenge: Check Radio Buttons and Checkboxes by Default

Link to the challenge:

Hey @alexander.elliott478!
This was just the FCC example to show you how to add checked to the radio buttons. You don’t need to add this to your code. So you can delete these lines of code.

Just add checked to the first radio buttons and checkboxes.

Hope that helps!
