##ME: Days of our Lives

1. In a new Ruby file, create an array (and assign it to a variable) containing the days of the week as strings, with Monday as the first and Sunday as the last.

2. My calendar says Sunday is the first day of the week. Write code to move Sunday from the end of the array to the beginning.

3. I'm really excited about Thursday for some reason. Write code to find that day in the array and make it all uppercase.

4. Create and assign a new array which contains two sub-arrays: One containing all the weekdays, and one containing the weekends.

5. Let's get in touch with our Viking heritage. With your new array of arrays, write code that will change Wednesday to "Woden's Day".

6. On second thought, I don't like weekdays at all. Write code that deletes the weekdays from the array of arrays, leaving only the weekend days.

7. Going back to your original array of days, write code that sorts the days alphabetically and assigns these to a new variable.

8. Finally, print out (on the terminal) the list of sorted days, with each day on its own line.

##bills_from_billings Using Andrew's video as a guide. Configure a Digital Ocean droplet and build a basic Sinatra application on it. Do not worry about complicated application logic. The point of this is to practice working with remote servers.

##sinatra_pick_me_up

Create a site like Emergency Compliment...except it will be WDI themed. When a Lemur visits the site, they'll be greeted with a compassionate, WDI-related message.

Part 1:

request	response
GET /	Displays greeting and randomly chosen compliment. Displays a random background color. Displays form prompting user to input their name. Form submits POST request to /names.

Part 2:

request	response
POST /names	Receives form input. Redirects to "/names?name=#{the_name_from_params}".
GET /names	Display random pick me up with name included in greeting

Note: It is considered bad practice to render html from a post request. This is why we redurect from our POST request.
