To finish this challenge, it's necessary to use __character classes__.
<!-- The article goes here, in GitHub-flavored Markdown. Feel free to add YouTube videos, images, and CodePen/JSBin embeds -->
The __\W__ matches any character that is not a word character from the basic Latin alphabet.
__Equivalent to [^A-Za-z0-9_].__
For example, /\W/ or /[^A-Za-z0-9_]/ matches "%" in "50%".
### Spoiiler Alert: Solution ahead
```javascript
let quoteSample = "The five boxing wizards jump quickly.";
let nonAlphabetRegex = /\W/g; // Change this line
let result = quoteSample.match(nonAlphabetRegex).length;
```
