--description--
So far, you have only been able to extract or search a pattern once.
let testStr = "Repeat, Repeat, Repeat";
let ourRegex = /Repeat/;
testStr.match(ourRegex);
Here match would return ["Repeat"].
To search or extract a pattern more than once, you can use the g flag.
let repeatRegex = /Repeat/g;
testStr.match(repeatRegex);
And here match returns the value ["Repeat", "Repeat", "Repeat"]
--instructions--
Using the regex starRegex, find and extract both Twinkle words from the string twinkleStar.
Note
You can have multiple flags on your regex like /search/gi
--hints--
Your regex starRegex should use the global flag g
assert(starRegex.flags.match(/g/).length == 1);
Your regex starRegex should use the case insensitive flag i
assert(starRegex.flags.match(/i/).length == 1);
Your match should match both occurrences of the word Twinkle
assert(
result.sort().join() ==
twinkleStar
.match(/twinkle/gi)
.sort()
.join()
);
Your match result should have two elements in it.
assert(result.length == 2);

--seed-contents--
let twinkleStar = "Twinkle, twinkle, little star";
let starRegex = /change/; // Change this line
let result = twinkleStar; // Change this line
--solutions--
let twinkleStar = "Twinkle, twinkle, little star";
let starRegex = /twinkle/gi;
let result = twinkleStar.match(starRegex);
