This is the link to my assessment,Can any one help me assessing my mistake,My code is not running.
There are three things wrong with your code. Here are some hints:
-
i
is never defined. - The
i++
is at the wrong place and causes an infinite loop. - In your
if
condition you compare the whole object to the entered name which is always false.
As a general advice I recommend having the DevTools console open to see certain errors. It’s also helpful to console.log()
certain values if something misbehaves.
I hope that helps. Tell me if you need more help.
Cheers,
Michael
Thank u @mikoMK, I will retry and will let u know.
Hello @mikoMK,I am still not getting the o/p,Can u help me where did i go wrong?
Below you will find an updated version of your search function. I added the array indexes, removed some unnecessary closing parentheses and move i++
inside the while loop. Additionally I added an event listener to call the function on button press.
function phoneBookWhile(){
let i =0;
while(i<phoneBook.length){
if(phoneBook[i].name===input.value){
para.textContent=`${phoneBook[i].name} ${phoneBook[i].number}`;
break;
}
i++;
}
}
btn.addEventListener('click', phoneBookWhile);
The only thing missing is no a conditional to check if we went through the whole array without finding the name.
Is is clearer now?
Cheers,
Michael
