PROJECT:: Learn to Master the art of the Function

Primary LanguageHTML

Part 1 - Test Master

Step 1 - Setup

  • os install function-master
  • open up test-master.html in your c9 and serve it.
  • open up test-master.js in your c9 and have a look.

Step 2 - Be The Test Master

test-master.js contains a bunch of unit tests. Unit tests help us verify that our code is doing the right thing by calling our functions with some test data and making sure that our functions do the right thing. These tests are incomplete and it is our job today to complete them.

  • Inspect the tests on the page and try to understand what's going on in general.
  • All the tests are currently failing.
  • If we look in test-master.html we can see that they are red and their status is failed
  • Each one of the tests has at least one occurrence of "???". This is what we need to change.
  • Change each "???" to the value that will make the test pass
  • Once they pass they will be blue and not red on the page!

Part 2 - Function Master

Review Questions from Module One Handbook?

  • what can we typeof ?
  • what can't we typeof ?
  • how do we check those things?
  • Array.isArray()
  • null === null

Standard Library Methods You Should Know By Now:

  • Object.keys()
  • String.toUpperCase()
  • String.split()
  • Array.join()

Step 3 - Be The Function Master

For this part of the lesson, you will be working in function-master.js. Part 2 is the opposite of Part 1 in that this time around we have a different and new set of tests written for us, and we'll be writing functions that pass them.

  • If you don't understand what a function is supposed to do, look at the test. If you still don't understand, ask me.
