This bit of code will search the string 'searchMe' for the string 'lookFor' and store the result (boolean) inside of 'result'

  let searchMe = 'can you find me in here?'; //string to search
  let lookFor = new RegExp("find me"); //reg exp pattern to look for 
  let result = lookFor.test(searchMe); //result of the search (true/false)

Try and apply this logic to your button click handler. Good luck!
