--description--

The list parameter is going to be the result of a query selector, which will return a NodeList. A NodeList is a list of elements like an array. It contains the elements that match the query selector. You will need to loop through these elements in the list.

In previous steps, you learned how to loop through an array using a for loop. You can also use a <dfn>for...of</dfn> loop to loop through an array and a NodeList.

A for...of loop is used to iterate over elements in an iterable object like an array. The variable declared in the loop represents the current element being iterated over.

js
for (const element of elementArray) {
  console.log(element);
}

Create a for...of loop that loops through the list. For the loop's variable name, use const to declare a variable called item.

--hints--

You should have a for...of loop that loops through the list parameter. Use item for the loop's variable name.

js
assert.match(code, /for\s*\(\s*const\s+item\s+of\s+list\s*\)\s*\{/);
