As the horizon that marks the end of Module One at Turing nears, it's only natural to reflect upon my own learning journey so far. It is remarkable to see what was learned and applied in a number of weeks, considering I only had a murky comprehension of classes or variable scope on day one. And now, I'm working with a partner to build a database that utilizes an albeit arbitrarily compiled data set.
A habit I worked on sharpening during this module involved asking questions that are action oriented rather than open ended. It's analogous to asking "How do I want to live life and what is it that I'm willing to struggle for?", versus the hefty question of "What's the meaning of life?" Since Test/Dream Driven Development (T/DDD) is heavily emphasized, this specific post will use the context of tackling failure and error test messages to explain how my thought process has evolved since Day One at Turing.
Early on, my initial reaction was to simply stare blankly a
