When i open the site, my browser crashes

[cardangi]

Hi guys, i was on the challenge Slasher Flick, when i clicked on “Run tests (ctrl + enter)”, my browser tab stopped working. I tried to clean cache, use another browser, go to main page of the site, but when i go to the challenge, it always crashes! (I’m not clicking on Run challenge, it just crashes on this challenge.)

And i know there are some loop protection, i didn’t used //noprotect line.

Print of the code:

1. For your for loop, change i = 1 to var i = 0
2. When you are trying to slice off an array, the requirement in the .slice() has to be a number, but in the slasher challenge, I think there are certain examples where the array contain words instead of numbers, so that causes an error to the page
3. Also, you shouldn’t do howMany + i, because in certain examples, the sum of howMany + i would be greater than the actual array length, and you can’t slice that off an array.

Browser crush problem

You have created either an infinite loop or infinite recursion. FCC uses an infinite loop protection, but it can’t catch every case. The reason that your browser crashes every time you try to load the challenge is because the code in your editor automatically runs. Try disabling auto run. Another option is to clear the challenge data from your browser cache.

As people have mentioned above, you’ve run into an infinite loop.

As an aside, I think you’ve over complicated the challenge. Try re-reading the MDN documentation from the link supplied: Array.slice()

The solution is a lot easier than you think (I think Elisa provided a YouTube link to the solution)
