* *

* Number Addition *

* Using the JavaScript language, have the function NumberSearch(str) take the str *

* parameter, search for all the numbers in the string, add them together, then *

* return that final number. For example: if str is "88Hello 3World!" the output *

* should be 91. You will have to differentiate between single digit numbers and *

* multiple digit numbers like in the example above. So "55Hello" and "5Hello 5" *

* should return two different answers. Each string will contain at least one letter *

* or symbol. *

* *

* SOLUTION *

* I only want numbers in the string so I am using RegExp to remove everything that *

* is not a number. Then convert that to an array. Loop thru each number in the array *

* and add tot to get the answer. *

* *

* Steps for solution *

* 1) Initialize tot to zero *

* 2) Remove everything but numbers from string and convert to array *

* 3) Loop thru each number in array and add to tot *

* 4) Return tot for answer *

* *
