--description--

Your getCaloriesFromInputs function will set the global error flag isError to true if an invalid input is detected. Add an if statement to your calculateCalories function that checks the truthiness of your global error flag, and if it is truthy then use return to end the function execution.

--hints--

Your calculateCalories function should have an if statement that checks the truthiness of the isError variable.

js
assert.match(calculateCalories.toString(), /if\s*\(\s*isError\s*\)/);

Your if statement should use return to end the function execution.

js
assert.match(calculateCalories.toString(), /if\s*\(\s*isError\s*\)\s*\{?\s*return\s*;?\s*\}?\s*/);

Your if statement should be placed after the last getCaloriesFromInputs function call.

js
assert.match(code, /if\s*\(\s*isError\s*\)\s*\{?\s*return\s*;?\s*\}?\s*\}\s*function\s+/);
