# --description--

Here's one more continuous animation example with the `animation-iteration-count` property that uses the heart you designed in a previous challenge.

The one-second long heartbeat animation consists of two animated pieces. The `heart` elements (including the `:before` and `:after` pieces) are animated to change size using the `transform` property, and the background `div` is animated to change its color using the `background` property.

# --instructions--

Keep the heart beating by adding the `animation-iteration-count` property for both the `back` class and the `heart` class and setting the value to `infinite`. The `heart:before` and `heart:after` selectors do not need any animation properties.

# --hints--

The `animation-iteration-count` property for the `heart` class should have a value of `infinite`.

```js
assert($('.heart').css('animation-iteration-count') == 'infinite');
```

The `animation-iteration-count` property for the `back` class should have a value of `infinite`.

```js
assert($('.back').css('animation-iteration-count') == 'infinite');
```
