JavaScript Functions

I can explain the difference between function declarations and function expressions. Yes. Declarations can get used higher than they are written, expressions can't.

I can explain what the value of this is in a normal function. Global window

The Concept of Require

When you start working with WebPack for GameTime, you'll notice that you can't just define a variable in one file and find it in another as easily as you can in Rails.

Read Node.js, Require and Exports and Organize Your Code with RequireJS

  • Responder #1 (here) - This user begins by doing an "if" check on the century condition, but then returns the result of a conditional check, on the year%4. It's interesting, but the inconsistency of the two approaches smells to me. I would have done an if statement for both or return the result of the conditional check for both -- not one of each.

#The Cult of Pythagoras

##The Pythagorean Theorem

  • a^2 +b^2 = c^2 in ancient greece - the square literally meant the square around it
  • a^2 +b^2 = c^2 in computer science - it's a formula for finding the shorest distance. Can be used to quantify distance and cluster results (like Netflix ratings and other predictive filtering algorythms)

but who was pythagoras.....
