Tell us what’s happening:
i do not understand how did this following code return [g]

let gPhrase = "gut feeling";
let goRegex = /go*/;
gPhrase.match(goRegex); // Returns ["g"]

Your code so far

// Only change code below this line
let chewieRegex = /Aa*/; // Change this line
// Only change code above this line

let result = chewieQuote.match(chewieRegex);

In Regex, the * character means ‘match zero or more times’, so go* is matching a g followed by zero or more o
