HI Everyone, my code works on the console but I can’t finish the task. please help

const checkForStraights = (arr) => {
const sorted = arr.sort((a, b) => {return a - b})
let count = 0
for (let i = 0; i < sorted.length; i++) {
if (sorted[i + 1] - sorted[i] === 1) {
count++;
}
}
if (count === 4) {
updateRadioOption(3, 30)
updateRadioOption(4, 40);
} else if (count === 3) {
updateRadioOption(3, 30)
}
updateRadioOption(5, 0);
}

Can you provide more info?

Whats the required output? What’s your output? Did you log some variables to the console to double check them? Did you log what arrays are being sent by the tests and how your function is treating them?

Welcome to the forum :wave:
