+Changes the lightness value of an `hsl()` color string.
+
+- Use `String.prototype.match()` to get an array of 3 strings with the numeric values.
+- Use `Array.prototype.map()` in combination with `Number` to convert them into an array of numeric values.
+- Make sure the lightness is within the valid range (between `0` and `100`), using `Math.max()` and `Math.min()`.
+- Use a template literal to create a new `hsl()` string with the updated value.
+
+```js
+const changeLightness = (delta, hslStr) => {
+  const [hue, saturation, lightness] = hslStr.match(/\d+/g).map(Number);
+
+  const newLightness = Math.max(
+    0,
+    Math.min(100, lightness + parseFloat(delta))
+  );
+
+  return `hsl(${hue}, ${saturation}%, ${newLightness}%)`;
+};
+```
+
+```js
+changeLightness(10, 'hsl(330, 50%, 50%)'); // 'hsl(330, 50%, 60%)'
+changeLightness(-10, 'hsl(330, 50%, 50%)'); // 'hsl(330, 50%, 40%)'
+```
