Day 16: Exceptions - String to Integer

    Not sure if the challenge/test-cases make sense as they are for a language like JS. Here my submission after a number of failed attempts (plus the obvious frustration), in case it helps. The challenge is easy. You are supposed to put the time practicing, not making HR work.

    function main() {
    const S = readLine();
    const N = Number(S);
    const throwsError = () => { throw new Error("Bad String") };

    try {
        isNaN(N) ? throwsError() : console.log(N);
    } catch(error) {
        console.log(error.message);
    }
}

      Thank you! I tried this on my this SASSA Status Check for R350 page and my issue was solved.

      that is a nonsense. why doesn't work the similar code? ` function main() { const S: string = readLine(); const N = Number(S); 

      try {
    if (isNaN(N)) {
        throw new Error("Bad String")
    } else {
        console.log(N)
    }
} catch(error) {
    console.log(error.message);
}

      } `
