####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 waya 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'
