I am trying to understand the peculiarity of this challenge.
The code challenge can only be passed by using .split(/\s+/)
instead of .split(' ')
.
The code test below shows that there are no empty strings in the array which may be causing the issue. Am I correct in saying that there may be zero-width spaces contained in title
?
function urlSlug(title) {
console.log(title
.toLowerCase()
.trim()
.split(' ')); //logs [ 'winter', 'is', 'coming']
return title
.toLowerCase()
.trim()
.split(' ')
.join('-');
}
urlSlug(" Winter Is Coming");
//returns 'winter-is-coming' does not pass test
