What is a hint to pass the challenge? At the moment it gives me an error.

Your code so far

const regex = str.replace(/[±\s]/g, “”);
return str.replace(/[±\s]/g, “”);
}

Hey @Coder9523
Just pass the regex variable you have to the .replace()method

Happy coding

Similar to this @opudoprince ?

function cleanInputString(str) {
const regex = /[±\s]/g;
regex.replace(/[±\s]/g);
}

or like this?

function cleanInputString(str) {

const regex = /[±\s]/g;

return str.replace(regex, “”);

}

The second one but remove the quote marks
