Projects: Palindrome Checker

JavaScript
1

Hello everybody,

I have been checking the project of the Palindrome and I its working in all the questions except one, I am getting really crazy with it, because even Im cheking it manually I think is true, not false as is shown in the text .

palindrome("1 eye for of 1 eye.") should return false.`

Here is my proposition, perhaps is not the best, but I feel proud to make it on my own.

function palindrome(str) {

var regChecker  = /[^a-zA-Z]/g

var cleanText = ""

var lengthText =  0

var toCheck =  "";

var valuePartA = ""

var valuePartB = ""



cleanText = str.replace( regChecker, '').toLowerCase()

console.log(cleanText.length)

lengthText = cleanText.length / 2

console.log(cleanText.length % 2)

    if(cleanText.length % 2 != 0){

        lengthText += 1

        console.log(lengthText)

    }

    console.log(lengthText)

    valuePartA = cleanText.slice(0, lengthText )

    console.log(valuePartA)

    valuePartB = cleanText.slice(lengthText * -1 ).split("").reverse().join("");

    console.log(valuePartB)

    if(valuePartA == valuePartB){

        return true

    }else{

        return false

    }

}

console.log(palindrome(“1 eye for of 1 eye.”));

Thank you everybody !! and keep coding

You have missed in description that numbers should be included in the palindrome check.
