the global error flag is a variable you declared at the top of your file called isError.
You need to make it false.

but that value was already false so why did we have to call that file again ?

Because in the if condition inside getCaloriesFromInputs function it will be true.

However, you need to make it false whenever the calculateCalories function is executed.

→ In later steps, you will check the isError variable in calculateCalories function after calling getCaloriesFromInputs multiple times.
