Learn Functional Programming by Building a Spreadsheet - Step 50

Hello, everyone!

I can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong in this task. I’ve tried several options, but the answer is not accepted.

Task: Pass a reference to your elemValue function as the callback to your .map() method.

javascriptCopy code

const evalFormula = (x, cells) => {
  const idToText = id => cells.find(cell => cell.id === id).value;
  const rangeRegex = /([A-J])([1-9][0-9]?):([A-J])([1-9][0-9]?)/gi;
  const rangeFromString = (num1, num2) => range(parseInt(num1), parseInt(num2));
  const elemValue = num => character => idToText(character + num);
  const addCharacters = character1 => character2 => num => charRange(character1, character2).map();
}

My solution attempts:

1. 
const addCharacters = character1 => character2 => num => charRange(character1, character2).map(elemValue(num));

2.
const addCharacters = (character1, character2, num) => {
  return charRange(character1, character2).map(
    elemValue(num)
  );
}

3.
const addCharacters = character1 => character2 => num => {
  const charRange = charRange(character1, character2);
  return charRange.map(elemValue);
};

4.
const addCharacters = character1 => character2 => num => {
  charRange(character1, character2).map(elemValue); 
}

5.
const addCharacters = character1 => character2 => num => {
  charRange(character1, character2).map(elemValue(num));
}


However, the answer is not accepted and I consistently receive: "Sorry, your code does not pass. Keep trying. You should pass a reference to `elemValue` as the callback to your `.map()` method."

Please advise on how to complete this task.

Post a link to the challenge.

It’s much easier than it seemed.

const addCharacters = character1 => character2 => num => charRange(character1, character2).map(elemValue);

Sometimes you need to take a break.
