56bbb991ad1ed5201cd392cf	Write Reusable JavaScript with Functions	1	https://scrimba.com/c/cL6dqfy	18378	write-reusable-javascript-with-functions

--description--

In JavaScript, we can divide up our code into reusable parts called functions.

Here's an example of a function:

function functionName() {
  console.log("Hello World");
}

You can call or invoke this function by using its name followed by parentheses, like this: functionName(); Each time the function is called it will print out the message "Hello World" on the dev console. All of the code between the curly braces will be executed every time the function is called.

--instructions--

Create a function called reusableFunction which prints "Hi World" to the dev console.
Call the function.

--hints--

reusableFunction should be a function.

assert(typeof reusableFunction === 'function');

reusableFunction should output "Hi World" to the dev console.

assert(hiWorldWasLogged);

You should call reusableFunction after you define it.

assert(/^\s*reusableFunction\(\)\s*/m.test(code));

--before-user-code--

var logOutput = "";
var originalConsole = console;
var nativeLog = console.log;
var hiWorldWasLogged = false;
function capture() {
    console.log = function (message) {
        if(message === 'Hi World')  hiWorldWasLogged = true;
        if(message && message.trim) logOutput = message.trim();
        if(nativeLog.apply) {
          nativeLog.apply(originalConsole, arguments);
        } else {
          var nativeMsg = Array.prototype.slice.apply(arguments).join(' ');
          nativeLog(nativeMsg);
        }
    };
}

function uncapture() {
  console.log = nativeLog;
}

capture();

--after-user-code--

uncapture();

if (typeof reusableFunction !== "function") { 
  (function() { return "reusableFunction is not defined"; })();
} else {
  (function() { return logOutput || "console.log never called"; })();
}

--seed-contents--

--solutions--

function reusableFunction() {
  console.log("Hi World");
}
reusableFunction();
