Invalid status code: undefined

Hello,

I am matching code in the videos, and I still can't get my cards route to work. Here is my cards.js code:

const express = require('express');
const router = express.Router();
const { data } = require('../data/flashcardData.json');
const { cards } = data;

router.get('/', (req, res) => {
    const numberOfCards = cards.length;
    const flashcardId = Math.floor( Math.random * numberOfCards );
    res.redirect(`/cards/${flashcardId}?side=question`)
});


router.get('/:id', (req, res) => {
    const { side } = req.query;
    const { id } = req.params.id;

    if ( !side ) {
        res.redirect(`/cards/${id}?side=question`)
    }

    const name = req.cookies.username;
    const text = cards[id][side];
    const { hint } = cards[id];

    const templateData = { id, text, name };
    if (side === 'question') {
        templateData.hint = hint;
        templateData.sideToShow = "answer";
        templateData.sideToShowDisplay = "Answer";
    } else if (side === "answer") {
        templateData.sideToShow = "question";
        templateData.sideToShowDisplay = "Question";
    }

    res.render('card', templateData);
});

module.exports = router;

I believe the error is somewhere in here. I have also included my app.js code:

const express = require('express');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
const cookieParser = require('cookie-parser')

const app = express();
app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded( {extended: false} ));
app.use(cookieParser());

app.set('view engine','pug');

const mainRoutes = require('./routes');
const cardRoutes = require('./routes/cards');

app.use(mainRoutes);
app.use('/cards', cardRoutes)

app.use((req, res, next) => {
    const err = new Error('Not Found');
    err.status = 404;
    next(err);
});

app.use((err, req, res, next) => {
    res.locals.error = err;
    res.status(err.status);
    res.render('error', err);
});


app.listen(3000, () => {
    console.log('The application is running on localhost:3000!');
});
