What is your question?
I am having trouble with the code below it fails the kata with tomorrows date and Yesterdays date and I cannot see the problem. It works on my local webage showing a True result and if I change the nowDay code by putting a +1 or -1 to it I get a false:
'''
function isToday(date) {
//Code goes here
let todayMonth = date.getMonth(); //indexed 0->11
let todayDay = date.getDay(); //also indexed 0-6
let todayYear = date.getFullYear(); //nb: getFullYear
const currDate = new Date();
let currMonth = currDate.getMonth(); //indexed 0->11
let currDay = currDate.getDay(); //also indexed 0-6
let currYear = currDated.getFullYear(); //nb: getFullYear
if( (todayDay === currDay) && (todayMonth === currMonth) && (todayYear === currYear) ){
console.log(true);
return true;
}
else{
console.log(false);
return false;
}
}
'''
It passes the first series of test but when I went to "Attempt" that it falied in "Should work for some edge cases". Again, I don't know why when it works on my local webpage.
Thankyou and Regards.
