# --description--

Back in your `sortInputArray` function, you need to get the values from your `select` elements. Since they all have the class `values-dropdown`, you can query them all at once.

Use `document.getElementsByClassName()` to get all the elements with this class by passing in the argument `"values-dropdown"`. Assign that to an `inputValues` variable with `const`.

# --hints--

You should use `document.getElementsByClassName()` to get all the elements with the class `"values-dropdown"`.

```js
assert.match(sortInputArray.toString(), /document\.getElementsByClassName\(\s*('|"|`)values-dropdown\1\s*\)/);
```

You should assign the result of `document.getElementsByClassName()` to a variable named `inputValues`.

```js
assert.match(sortInputArray.toString(), /inputValues\s*=\s*document\.getElementsByClassName\(\s*('|"|`)values-dropdown\1\s*\)/);
```

You should use `const` to declare `inputValues`.

```js
assert.match(code, /const\s+inputValues\s*=\s*document\.getElementsByClassName\(\s*('|"|`)values-dropdown\1\s*\)/);
```
