Time for action – resuming a game from the local storage

Carry out the following steps:

1. Open the matchgame.js JavaScript file.
2. In the jQuery document ready function, we used the saved order of the deck in the previous game instead of shuffling a new deck. Add the following highlighted code in the jQuery ready function:

   $(document).ready(function(){
     // reset the elapsed time to 0.
     matchingGame.elapsedTime = 0;
   
     // start the timer
     matchingGame.timer = setInterval(countTimer, 1000);
   
   // shuffling the deck
     matchingGame.deck.sort(shuffle);
   
     // re-create the saved deck
     var savedObject = savedSavingObject();
     if (savedObject !== undefined) {
       matchingGame.deck = savedObject.deck;
     }
   
     // copying the deck into saving object. matchingGame.savingObject.deck = ...
