Learn Form Validation by Building a Calorie Counter - Step 81

Tell us what’s happening:

I have been stuck on this step since yesterday. I have reset it but nothing is working. I am not sure why.

Your code so far

const calorieCounter = document.getElementById('calorie-counter');
const budgetNumberInput = document.getElementById('budget');
const entryDropdown = document.getElementById('entry-dropdown');
const addEntryButton = document.getElementById('add-entry');
const clearButton = document.getElementById('clear');
const output = document.getElementById('output');
let isError = false;

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

function isInvalidInput(str) {
  const regex = /\d+e\d+/i;
  return str.match(regex);
}

function addEntry() {
  const targetInputContainer = document.querySelector(`#${entryDropdown.value} .input-container`);
  const entryNumber = targetInputContainer.querySelectorAll('input[type="text"]').length + 1;
  const HTMLString = `
    <label for="${entryDropdown.value}-${entryNumber}-name">Entry ${entryNumber} Name</label>
    <input type="text" id="${entryDropdown.value}-${entryNumber}-name" placeholder="Name" />
    <label for="${entryDropdown.value}-${entryNumber}-calories">Entry ${entryNumber} Calories</label>
    <input
      type="number"
      min="0"
      id="${entryDropdown.value}-${entryNumber}-calories"
      placeholder="Calories"
    />`;
  targetInputContainer.insertAdjacentHTML('beforeend', HTMLString);
}

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 = remainingCalories < 0 ? 'Surplus' : 'Deficit';
  const surplusOrDeficitClass = surplusOrDeficit.toLowerCase();

  output.innerHTML = `
    <span class="${surplusOrDeficitClass}"></span>
  `;
}

function getCaloriesFromInputs(list) {
  let calories = 0;

  for (const item of list) {
    const currVal = cleanInputString(item.value);
    const invalidInputMatch = isInvalidInput(currVal);

    if (invalidInputMatch) {
      alert(`Invalid Input: ${invalidInputMatch[0]}`);
      isError = true;
      return 0;
    }
    calories += Number(currVal);
  }
  return calories;
}

addEntryButton.addEventListener('click', addEntry);

Hi there,

You should take a look at the provided error message:

Your span should have the class attribute set to surplusOrDeficit.toLowerCase().

and compare with your code to find out what you did wrong.

Happy coding.

mbas · July 15, 2024, 3:55pm

I am confused on this step Give your span the text remainingCalories Calorie surplusOrDeficit , using interpolation to replace remainingCalories and surplusOrDeficit with the appropriate variables.

const budgetNumberInput = document.getElementById('budget');
const entryDropdown = document.getElementById('entry-dropdown');
const addEntryButton = document.getElementById('add-entry');

This is is what my code is like so far

Hi there!
You should not add the quote marks around your span text. Remove quote marks after opening span and before the closing span tags.

mbas · July 15, 2024, 6:12pm

I have removed them

const calorieCounter = document.getElementById('calorie-counter');
const budgetNumberInput = document.getElementById('budget');

  const regex = /[+-\s]/g;
  return str.replace(regex, '');

  return str.match(regex);
}

}

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

    return;
  }

      return 0;
    }
    calories += Number(currVal);
  }
  return calories;
}

addEntryButton.addEventListener('click', addEntry);

this is what it looks like now

is this what you meant

I have noticed now that, you have modified your both lines of code. Reset your challenge and read the instructions carefully. Then try again.

Where is the toLowerCase() method within class attribute`s value?

Above is the variable name.

Then why you added Class with it. As class attribute value.

Check the method letter casing again.
