Tell us what’s happening:
Describe your issue in detail here.

Your code so far
My code works so I don’t know why it is rejected. How might I remove whitespace rather than not select it? is that the question?

let hello = "   Hello, World!  ";
let wsRegex = /[\S].+\S/g; // Change this line
let result = hello.match(wsRegex); // Change this line
console.log(result);

The .match is going to return an array of all patterns that match. In your scenario, it will return:

[ 'Hello, World!' ]

How can you access the first index of the array and set the value of the result to that?

I am not sure what you are saying. However in the end I got it as the problem was getting a replace in the equation.
