--description--

It is time to work on the final issue. If there is a to-do task with a special character like a quote inside of the name or description of the item, the application breaks. While it appears otherwise, the correct item will appear missing.

In order to fix this, we need to create a function called removeSpecialChars that takes a string as input and removes all special characters.

--hints--

You should define a removeSpecialChars function.

js
assert.isFunction(removeSpecialChars);

Your removeSpecialChars should remove single quotes.

js
assert.strictEqual(removeSpecialChars("quincy's dance party"),"quincys dance party");

Your removeSpecialChars should remove double quotes.

js
assert.strictEqual(removeSpecialChars(`"Literature" report due`),"Literature report due");

Your removeSpecialChars should remove underscores.

js
assert.strictEqual(removeSpecialChars(`Naomi has a __gif__ folder`),"Naomi has a gif folder");
