# --description--
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
An irrational decimal fraction is created by concatenating the positive integers:
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
0.12345678910**1**112131415161718192021...
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
It can be seen that the 12<sup>th</sup> digit of the fractional part is 1.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
If *d<sub>n</sub>* represents the *n*<sup>th</sup> digit of the fractional part, find the value of the following expression.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
d<sub>1</sub> × d<sub>10</sub> × d<sub>100</sub> × d<sub>1000</sub> × d<sub>10000</sub> × d<sub>100000</sub> × d<sub>1000000</sub>

# --hints--
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
`champernownesConstant(100)` should return a number.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```js
 | 
						||
assert(typeof champernownesConstant(100) === 'number');
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
`champernownesConstant(100)` should return 5.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```js
 | 
						||
assert.strictEqual(champernownesConstant(100), 5);
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
`champernownesConstant(1000)` should return 15.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```js
 | 
						||
assert.strictEqual(champernownesConstant(1000), 15);
 | 
						||
```
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
`champernownesConstant(1000000)` should return 210.
 | 
						||
 | 
						||
```js
 | 
						||
assert.strictEqual(champernownesConstant(1000000), 210);
 | 
						||
```

  let fractionalPart = '';

    fractionalPart += i.toString();

  let product = 1;

 |

    const index = 10 ** i;

    product *= parseInt(fractionalPart[index], 10);
