## Implementation

```javascript
function isAlphanumeric(text) { return /^[0-9A-Z]+$/i.test(text); }
```

## Input

```json
"Order8812"
```

## Expected output

```json
true
```

## Edge case

Input:
```json
"Order 8812"
```
Output:

## Limits

- ASCII only: accented letters and spaces fail. The empty string fails too.

The lab validates types and size before calling this function. Add equivalent validation at your own trust boundary.
