seems comparing index and loop doesn't work Any to crack it?
const laws = document.getElementsByTagName('li');
const indexText = document.getElementById('boldIndex');
const button = document.getElementById('embolden');
button.addEventListener('click', (e) => {
const index = parseInt(indexText.value, 10);
for (let i = 0; i < laws.length; i += 1) {
let law = laws[i];
// replace 'false' with a correct test condition on the line below
if (law === index || index === 0 || 1 || 2) {
law.style.fontWeight = 'bold';
} else {
law.style.fontWeight = 'normal';
}
}
});

<h1>Newton's Laws of Motion</h1>
<ul>
<li>An object in motion tends to stay in motion, unless acted on by an outside force.</li>
<li>Acceleration is dependent on the forces acting upon an object and the mass of the object.</li>
<li>For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.</li>

Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 10,899 PointsAbsolutely confusing challenge, why to write an variable law if it's not to use it to compare treehouse teaching's secret?

13,014 PointsYeah it could just be law[i].style.fontWeight
