Tic-Tac-Toe: The goal is to implement a basic tic-tac-toe game. We will build it in the terminal using Node. The game will support 2 players, X and O, that make alternating moves. You're free to google anything you want! Develop this like you would work on any other project but please work on it indepdently. This project is tough! It's meant to be hard and to stretch your skills.

1. Use ES6 classes to create a board class. The class should be able to store a 3x3 grid of tic-tac-toe pieces.

2. Add a method to the class to print the board to the terminal (console.log) The format is up to you, but it should be clear to the user which pieces are where. Here's a possibility:

X|-|O

Java highlights from Head First Java

- public static main; at least one per app
- source code -> compile -> byte code -> run on platform independent JVMs
- bool and int are not compatible -> no int x = 1; if (x)
- class = blueprint for object; object oriented = inheritance with superclass -> DRY
- main only really used to test or start the Java app
- every time an object is created in Java, it is stored in memory called the heap (a garbage-collectible heap) 
  -> JVM does a lot of the magic to manage the heap
- jar = when you have lots of classes

This gist outlines the change in the depth and breadth of the tasks and responsibilities of a software engineer as she continuously improves herself.

I created this to supplement a discussion in an internal slack group; then I though the rest of the world might benefit from this too.

Contributions are always welcome.

Do I have a web server running?

---

having a web server turned on doesn't necessarily mean you are serving pages on the world wide web. its what allows you to load your own static files (.html, .js etc.) in a browser via http://.

if you're not sure whether or not you have a web server running, no problem! its easy to confirm.

what happens when you visit http://localhost/?

Studying for a Tech Interview Sucks, so Here's a Cheat Sheet to Help

This list is meant to be a both a quick guide and reference for further research into these topics. It's basically a summary of that comp sci course you never took or forgot about, so there's no way it can cover everything in depth. It also will be available as a gist on Github for everyone to edit and add to.
