Your code so far

WARNING

The challenge seed code and/or your solution exceeded the maximum length we can port over from the challenge.

You will need to take an additional step here so the code you wrote presents in an easy to read format.

Please copy/paste all the editor code showing in the challenge from where you just linked.

Replace these two sentences with your copied code.
Please leave the ``` line above and the ``` line below,
because they allow your code to properly format in the post.

Learn Form Validation by Building a Calorie Counter - Step 77

function calculateCalories(e) {
  e.preventDefault();
  isError = false;

  const breakfastNumberInputs = document.querySelectorAll('#breakfast input[type=number]');
  const lunchNumberInputs = document.querySelectorAll('#lunch input[type=number]');
  const dinnerNumberInputs = document.querySelectorAll('#dinner input[type=number]');
  const snacksNumberInputs = document.querySelectorAll('#snacks input[type=number]');
  const exerciseNumberInputs = document.querySelectorAll('#exercise input[type=number]');

  const breakfastCalories = getCaloriesFromInputs(breakfastNumberInputs);
  const lunchCalories = getCaloriesFromInputs(lunchNumberInputs);
  const dinnerCalories = getCaloriesFromInputs(dinnerNumberInputs);
  const snacksCalories = getCaloriesFromInputs(snacksNumberInputs);
  const exerciseCalories = getCaloriesFromInputs(exerciseNumberInputs);
  const budgetCalories = getCaloriesFromInputs([budgetNumberInput]);

  if (isError) {
    return;
  }

  const consumedCalories = breakfastCalories + lunchCalories + dinnerCalories + snacksCalories;
  const remainingCalories = budgetCalories - consumedCalories + exerciseCalories;
let surplusOrDeficit = surplusOrDeficit
}

Having reached step 77, I only understood how to create functions and variables, everything else is not clear, instructions have to be sent to artificial intelligence to get answers, otherwise I would never understand them, at this stage I decided to try to figure it out, now the same problem is not clear Does anyone know what to do and how to write the code correctly?

const surplusOrDeficit = remainingCalories >= 0 ? “Surplus” : “Deficit”;
this does not work

Smart quotes are a problem in Javascript - you should use either '' or "" not “”

Hi @masha2

The instructions are asking if the remainingCalories variable is less than 0.
Your code is currently checking if it is greater than or equal to 0.

Happy coding
