Regular Expressions: Match Single Character with Multiple PossibilitiesPassed

JavaScript
#1

Tell us what’s happening:
For some reason my code isn’t working

Your code so far
let quoteSample = “Beware of bugs in the above code; I have only proved it correct, not tried it.”;
let vowelRegex = /b[aeiou]g/gi; // Change this line
let result = quoteSample.match(vowelRegex); // Change this line

#2

You are supposed to be matching just vowels. You are only matching instances where a b or B exists immediately before a single vowel, followed by the letter g or G. That is not what the challenge instructions want. What is the purpose of adding the b and the g?

#3

I thought you needed it to complete a word

#4

Where in the instructions does it tell you to match words that start with b followed by a vowel and then followed by g?

#5

Your RegExp is only looking for the matches to “bag”, “beg”, “big”, “bog”, and “bug”. Remove the “b” and “g”, i.e. /[aeiou]/gi. You’re only matching “bug”.

If you can’t figure out how to solve something like this, simply end your code with console.log to debug it (no pun intended :upside_down_face:).

#6

it doesn’t I got rid of it

#7

It logs 25 when I console.log it but won’t run in the code I have before

#8

What does you latest code look like?
