Javascript vs Ruby

JavaScript has two ways of defining functions – function expressions (FE) and function declarations (FD)

//function declaration:
    function functionName(){
      //the code you want to execute
      alert("This is a function declaration!")
 }

Rails Routes ‘n Shit

"root" is more common in the eastern US and "rowt" more common in the west

When your rails app receives an incoming request GET /patients/17 it asks the router to match it to a controller action. match “/patients/:id” => “patients#show” If the first matching route is the request, it is dispatched to the patients controller’s show action with { :id => “17” } as params.

RESOURCES creates = GET: index (Display a list of all photos)

Remember that Hard Work is more important than talent or intelligence.

Greatness is often misattributed to some finite level of ability. People assume others are ahead of them without accounting for the amount of work that person is putting in to achieve their success.

Persistence and Patience

- patience with yourself and persistence with this process. Learning over completion - You just paid over $12,000 to be here. It's not about checking boxes off of a list, it's about learning the material

A collection of advice and tips organized into loose categories. Looking for additions and feedback. If you want to submit ideas via survey, I've put up a survey on Gorilla Survey!
+# Learning
+#Proper Variable Naming - make the variable name descriptive and concise
=>don't name after the data structure
=>avoid numbered variables (var1, var2, var3)
=>avoid single character names (except for short blocks or indexes)
+#Proper Method Naming
=>use the right suffix (! or ?)
=>the name should reflect the method's single responsibility
+#Keep it DRY
