## Description
|
|
<section id='description'>
|
|
A new feature of ES6 is the <dfn>template literal</dfn>. This is a special type of string that makes creating complex strings easier.
|
|
Template literals allow you to create multi-line strings and to use string interpolation features to create strings.
|
|
Consider the code below:
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const person = {
|
|
name: "Zodiac Hasbro",
|
|
age: 56
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
// Template literal with multi-line and string interpolation
|
|
const greeting = `Hello, my name is ${person.name}!
|
|
I am ${person.age} years old.`;
|
|
|
|
console.log(greeting); // prints
|
|
// Hello, my name is Zodiac Hasbro!
|
|
// I am 56 years old.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
A lot of things happened there.
|
|
Firstly, the example uses backticks (<code>`</code>), not quotes (<code>'</code> or <code>"</code>), to wrap the string.
|
|
Secondly, notice that the string is multi-line, both in the code and the output. This saves inserting <code>\n</code> within strings.
|
|
The <code>${variable}</code> syntax used above is a placeholder. Basically, you won't have to use concatenation with the <code>+</code> operator anymore. To add variables to strings, you just drop the variable in a template string and wrap it with <code>${</code> and <code>}</code>. Similarly, you can include other expressions in your string literal, for example <code>${a + b}</code>.
|
|
This new way of creating strings gives you more flexibility to create robust strings.

## Instructions
|
|
<section id='instructions'>
|
|
Use template literal syntax with backticks to display each entry of the <code>result</code> object's <code>failure</code> array. Each entry should be wrapped inside an <code>li</code> element with the class attribute <code>text-warning</code>, and listed within the <code>resultDisplayArray</code>.
|
|
Use an iterator method (any kind of loop) to get the desired output (shown below).
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
[
|
|
'<li class="text-warning">no-var</li>',
|
|
'<li class="text-warning">var-on-top</li>',
|
|
'<li class="text-warning">linebreak</li>'
|
|
]
|
|
```

## Tests
|
|
<section id='tests'>
|
|
|
|
```yml
|
|
tests:
|
|
- text: <code>resultDisplayArray</code> should be an array containing <code>result failure</code> messages.
|
|
testString: assert(typeof makeList(result.failure) === 'object' && resultDisplayArray.length === 3);
|
|
- text: <code>resultDisplayArray</code> should be equal to the specified output.
|
|
testString: assert(makeList(result.failure).every((v, i) => v === `<li class="text-warning">${result.failure[i]}</li>` || v === `<li class='text-warning'>${result.failure[i]}</li>`));
|
|
- text: Template strings and expression interpolation should be used.
|
|
testString: getUserInput => assert(getUserInput('index').match(/(`.*\${.*}.*`)/));
|
|
- text: An iterator should be used.
|
|
testString: getUserInput => assert(getUserInput('index').match(/for|map|reduce|forEach|while/));
|
|
```
