Q & A

  • What the heck happened with our site? A jekyll upgrade
  • Where are the exercises if this ever happens again? _posts/exercises (they’re posts just like you make but with some extra custom stuff)
  • Turtle state
  • What’s the deal with return?
  • Where do variables exist?

With both of these, our text doesn’t explain as much as Automate the boring stuff does; check that link for more info on return values and scope. I’ll now demonstrate the basics with your help.

Pair Up & then Circle Up!

We’re going to quickly pair, discuss and merge your posts, then you’ll introduce your partner’s work to the class. Your partner can then discuss their program for us.

Thursday

Chapter 5 reading & exercises. We’ll finally go over loops! Woot.
