  • Failed:Your regex myRegex should return true for the string Eleanor Roosevelt

  • Passed:Your regex myRegex should return false for the string Franklin Rosevelt

  • Passed:Your regex myRegex should return false for the string Frank Roosevelt

  • Passed:Your regex myRegex should return false for the string FranklinRoosevelt

  • Passed:Your regex myRegex should return false for the string EleanorRoosevelt

  • Passed:You should use .test() to test the regex.

  • Failed:Your result should return true.

Why am i failing these two points i dont get it

Your code so far

let myString = "Eleanor Roosevelt";
let myRegex = /(Eleanor|Franklin) (.*) Roosevelt/; // Change this line
let result = myRegex.test(myString); // Change this line
// After passing the challenge experiment with myString and see how the grouping works

try console.log(result), you will see it says false. There is a small thing you are not considering in making this work.
