Tell us what’s happening:

step 22, I don’t know what is wrong.

### Your code so far

function cleanInputString(str) {
const strArray = str.split(‘’);
const cleanStrArray = ;
for (let i = 0; i < strArray.length; i++) {
if(![“+”, “-”, " "].includes(strArray[i])) {
cleanStrArray.push(strArray[i]);
}
}
}

:balloon:Hello @hungozada! Welcome to the forum!

I just tried a similar version of your code as below, which also will not pass the tests, but logs the expected output IMHO.

function cleanInputStrings(str) {
  const strArray = str.split("");
  const cleanStrArray = [];

  for (let i = 0; i < strArray.length; i++) {
    const element = strArray[i];
    if (!["+", "-", " "].includes(element)) {
      cleanStrArray.push(element);
    }
  }
  console.log("cleanStrArray:", cleanStrArray);
}

cleanInputStrings("123 +9-8");  // ["1","2","3","9","8"]

Might be a candidate for a PR?

There appear to be error in the test, if you remove semicolon from the following line, test will pass.

cleanStrArray.push(strArray[i])
