# --description--

La prossima espressione regolare cercherà stringhe come `free money`. Inizia dichiarando una variabile `freeRegex` e assegnale un'espressione regolare che trova riscontro con la stringa `free money`. Ricordati di renderla insensibile alle maiuscole.

# --hints--

Dovresti dichiarare una variabile `freeRegex` usando `const`.

```js
assert.match(code, /const\s*freeRegex\s*=/);
```

La variabile `freeRegex` dovrebbe essere un'espressione regolare.

```js
assert.instanceOf(freeRegex, RegExp);
```

`freeRegex` dovrebbe trovare corrispondenza con `free money`.

```js
assert.match('free money', freeRegex);
```

`freeRegex` dovrebbe essere insensibile alle maiuscole.

```js
assert.include(freeRegex.flags, 'i');
```
