####what is valid and invalid url/id?
- valid url/id are all strings that do match with an existent youtube video url or id, depending on the function called. ex:
var validUrl1 = 'youtube.com/watch?v=2XH5_qafR8k'
var validUrl2 = 'www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XH5_qafR8k'
var validUrl3 = 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XH5_qafR8k'
var validUrl4 = 'www.YOUTUBE.COM/watch?v=2XH5_qafR8k'
var validID = '2XH5_qafR8k'
- invalid url/id are the same as above, but on the other way around. ex:
var invalidUrl1 = 'random_stuff_here'
var invalidUrl2 = 'www.youtube.com/'
var invalidUrl3 = 'www.youtube.com'
var invalidUrl44 = 'www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XH5_qafR8k'.toUpperCase() //video ids are case sensitive
var invalidID = 'id_that_does_not_exist'
