Call the find_by_phone_number method on the address_book instance and pass it any phone number.

I'm having trouble with Challenge Task 1 of 1 regarding "Call the find_by_phone_number method on the address_book instance and pass it any phone number". Can anyone show me the correct code so I can figure this out?

address_book.rb
class AddressBook
  def search(contact)
    find_by_name(contact)
    find_by_address(contact)
    find_by_phone_number(contact)
  end
end

address_book = AddressBook.new
address_book.find_by_phone_number(contact)

Hi Mark,

Try:

address_book = AddressBook.new
address_book.find_by_phone_number("555-5555")
