Assignment 1 (30 min)

Read Turing Instructor David Whitaker's article on Git and GitHub

  • Use the article and outside resources (Google!) to describe the general process of a collaborative git workflow in the space below.

User 1 makes commits on Machine A and pushes them to GitHub repo where User 2 pulls the repo to Machine B. User 2 then works on the repo and saved changes as commits, pushing them back to GitHub. This can go in this circular flow but it doesn't always. If User 2 is taking a long time to make changes, they may want to pull from GitHub occasionally in case User 1 has continued to commit the repo while they have been working. If User 2 is wanting User 1 to incorporate new features User 2 has coded into their local version of the repo (for example), they can do a pull request.

Assignment 2 (10 min)

  • Watch Tim's video on classes and objects.

  • In the space below, come up with your own example of a class (like "bottle") and several objects (like "spray bottle", "nalgene", etc.):

Class: Jewlery

Objects: Engagement Ring, Diamond Solitaire Earrings, Silver Anklet, Labret

Class: Pants

Objects: jeans, yoga pants, dress slacks, jeggings

Assignment 3 (60 min)
