--description--

Next, you need to check if the value returned by the parseInt() function is a number or not.

To do that, you can use the isNaN() function. This function takes in a string or number as an argument, and returns true if it evaluates to NaN. For example:

js
isNaN("test"); // true
isNaN(2); // false
isNaN("3.5"); // false

Update the second condition in your if statement to use the isNaN() function to check if the value returned by parseInt() is NaN.

Also, as we mentioned in step 1, we are considering only positive numbers, so we should add a third condition to the if statement to check whether the number is less than 0 (i.e., negative numbers).

js
 6 < 0; // false
-1 < 0; // true
-8 < 0; // true
 0 < 0; //false

--hints--

You should wrap the value returned by parseInt() in the isNaN() function. And add a third condition which checks the value returned by parseInt() to be less than 0.

js
assert.match(String(checkUserInput), /if\s*\(\s*!\s*numberInput\s*\.\s*value\s*\|\|\s*isNaN\(\s*parseInt\(\s*numberInput\s*\.\s*value\s*\)\s*\)\s*\|\|\s*parseInt\(\s*numberInput\s*\.\s*value\s*\)\s*\<\s*0\s*\)\s*\{/);

The body of your if statement within checkUserInput should be empty.

js
assert.match(String(checkUserInput), /if\s*\(\s*.+\s*\)\s*\{\s*\}/);
