Tell us what’s happening:

I can’t understand why my code doesn’t pass the second test:
"2. If a small straight is rolled, your checkForStraights function should enable the fourth radio button, set the value to 30, update the displayed text to , score = 30 and leave the fifth radio button disabled. "

Your code so far

<!-- file: index.html -->


/* file: styles.css */


/* file: script.js */
// User Editable Region

const checkForStraights = arr => {
  const sorted = arr.sort((a,b) => a-b)
  console.log(sorted)
  const distincts = sorted.filter((elem,index) => elem !== sorted[index+1]) 
  console.log(distincts)
  const cleared = []

  for(let i=0; i<distincts.length ; i++){
    if(i!==0 && distincts[i] - 1 === cleared[cleared.length-1]){
      cleared.push(distincts[i])
    }
    else if(i === 0){ cleared.push(distincts[i])}
  }
  console.log(cleared)

  if(cleared.length === 4) { console.log('entered here1');updateRadioOption(3, 30)}
  else if(cleared.length === 5) {
    console.log('entered here2')
    updateRadioOption(3, 30);
    updateRadioOption(4,40);
    }
  else {
    updateRadioOption(5,0);
    console.log('entered here3')} 
} 
//checkForStraights([5,1,6,3,2]) 

rollDiceBtn.addEventListener("click", () => {
  if (rolls === 3) {
    alert("You have made three rolls this round. Please select a score.");
  } else {
    rolls++;
    resetRadioOptions();
    rollDice();
    updateStats();
    getHighestDuplicates(diceValuesArr);
    detectFullHouse(diceValuesArr);
    checkForStraights(diceValuesArr);
  }
});
