--description--

You also need to get the value of your #budget input. You already queried this at the top of your code, and set it to the budgetNumberInput variable. However, you used getElementById, which returns an Element, not a NodeList.

A NodeList is an array-like object, which means you can iterate through it and it shares some common methods with an array. For your getCaloriesFromInputs function, an array will work for the argument just as well as a NodeList does.

Declare a budgetCalories variable and set it to the result of calling getCaloriesFromInputs – pass an array containing your budgetNumberInput as the argument.

--hints--

Your calculateCalories function should have a budgetCalories variable.

js
assert.match(calculateCalories.toString(), /budgetCalories\s*=/);

You should call getCaloriesFromInputs with [budgetNumberInput] as the argument.

js
assert.match(calculateCalories.toString(), /getCaloriesFromInputs\s*\(\s*\[\s*budgetNumberInput\s*\]\s*\)/);

You should assign the result of getCaloriesFromInputs to budgetCalories.

js
assert.match(calculateCalories.toString(), /budgetCalories\s*=\s*getCaloriesFromInputs\s*\(\s*\[\s*budgetNumberInput\s*\]\s*\)/);
