+
+```javascript
+function findLongestWord(str) {
+
+  var arr = str.split(' ');
+
+  var max = 0;
+
+  for (var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++) {
+    var valStr = arr[i].length;
+
+    if (valStr > max) {
+      max = valStr;
+    }
+  }
+  return max;
+}
+
+findLongestWord("The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog");
+```

+2. Setup a var for tracked the length of the bigger
+3. Loop inside the arr
+4. Setup a var for shortcut the length
+5. If the new one is bigger than the prev one make it the new bigger
