Tell us what’s happening:

Step 75
You’ll show the animation when users try to convert the decimal number 5 to binary, so you’ll need to add a check for that within your checkUserInput() function.

Use an if statement to check if the value attribute of numberInput is equal to the number 5. Remember to use the parseInt() function to convert the string into a number before comparing it to 5. Leave the if statement empty for now.

I do not understand step 75

Your code so far

<!-- file: index.html -->


/* file: script.js */
// User Editable Region

function checkUserInput() { 
  let numberInput = document.getElementById('numberInput'); 
if (parseInt(numberInput.value) === 5) {
}
  if (=== 5) {
  }
}


// User Editable Region

/* file: styles.css */

Hi @wdixon844

Leave the if statement empty for now.

This means to leave the body of the if statement empty.
You can safely remove the following code:

Happy coding
