Grrrr!!!
Yesterday a guy I had never spoken with asked me via twitter to give him the solution to a coding challenge (for the school I will be going to). Just like that! “give me the solution please”.
Not “Can you explain the problem please?” or “I’m blocked, I did this but it doesn’t work, what can I do?”
It has happened on several occasions already. I wonder: do guys only do this with women or do they act like that with other guys too?
The thing is I like helping people, and more precisely, empowering people, and I’m hurt when people just want to take advantage of me. I just don’t feel recognized for who I am. That is incredibly impolite.
Someone on twitter shared this quote and I really like it:
“The capacity to learn is gift; the ability to learn is a skill; the willingness to learn is a choice.” - Brian Herbert
Ok, back to code:
for…of
Today, I finished learning about for of loop. Actually yesterday I was blocked on a quiz exersise and I couldn’t see where the mistake was.
the for of looked like that: for (day of days) but inside the loop, I kept referring to days[day] (as in old loop youu refer to days[i]) and of course it didn’t worked!
because I only needed to write day.
So today I finally saw where the mistake was and I was happy to be able to move on.
Spread and rest operator: …
I love it!
### Spread: if you want spill elements out of an array.
### Rest: if you want to bunddle up elements into an array.
Spread example:
const series = ['Black Books', 'Mr Bean', 'The Office'];
console.log(...series); //Black Books Mr Bean The Office
Rest example:
function bunddleStufff (...things){
// so you see that makes an array
//and you can loop through that array:
for(const thing of things){
console.log(thing);
}
}
bunddleStuff('book','phone', 'purse');
I learned function such as bunddleStuff are called Variadic Functions. Variadic functions take an indefinite amount of arguments.
That’s all folks!
