HTML

HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language. It is like the scaffolding of a web page, in that it gives structure. HTML uses lots of tags, most of which must be closed, to label the pieces and allow the browser to render it.

Module 1 Week 4 Diagnostic

This exercise is intended to help you assess your progress with the concepts and techniques we've covered during the week.

For these questions, write a short description or snippet of code that meets the requirement. In cases where the question mentions a "given" data value, use the variable given to refer to it (instead of re-writing the information).

1. Give one difference between Modules and Classes.
  • One difference between a module and a class is that modules can be used as mixins (mix in the methods contained within them). A module 4 student I paired with described them as a "toolbox" in that sense.

Week 2 and 3 Diagnostic

Week 2 and 3 Diagnostic

This exercise is intended to help you assess your progress with the concepts and techniques we've covered during the week.

For these questions, write a short snippet of code that meets the requirement. In cases where the question mentions a "given" data value, use the variable given to refer to it (instead of re-writing the information).

Use single (`) and triple backticks (```) to container code snippets.

  1. Define a class called PizzaOven which has a method cook_pizza which returns the string "mmm 'za".

Floats and Integers

What’s the difference between a float and integer?

  • A float has a decimal point, while an integer is a whole number. Makes a difference with division.

What’s are the similarities and differences between BigNum and FixNum?

  • BigNum and FixNum are both types of integers. A FixNum is a "small" number, while a BigNum is a "big" one (very big). Something to do with hexidecimal digits, I think.

Pre-work Reflection - Turing Culture: Developing Empathetic Programmers

#Questions to prompt reflection:

  • What role does empathy play in your life and how has it helped you?
  • How does empathy help you build better software?
  • Why is empathy important for working on a team?
  • Describe a situation in which your ability to empathize with a colleague or teammate was helpful.
  • When do you find it most difficult to be empathetic in professional settings? How can you improve your skills when faced with these scenarios?
