Learn Form Validation by Building a Calorie Counter - Step 24

JavaScript

Tell us what’s happening:

It says that the function should directly return the result of my replace method. I guess I’m returning the wrong thing? I also tried returning regex.

Your code so far

<!-- file: index.html -->


/* file: styles.css */


/* file: script.js */
// User Editable Region

function cleanInputString(str) {
  const regex = /[+-\s]/g;
  str.replace(regex, "");
  return str;
}

// User Editable Region

Return directly the first code line here.

Ok instead of just returning str, I returned the whole line, but then I wonder what the point of the line was anyway if we could just put it in the return line? Was there a need to duplicate it? Just curious to see what my knowledge of javascript is missing.

or actually nevermind I found out it removed the duplicate anyway.
