Comprehension Questions

Feature	Feedback
What are the components that make up a method?	First part of method is the method signature. Method signature includes def tag and method name followed by optional parameters. Then there is a code block. Finally a return statement is used to explicit return an object reference. If no return statement then the last line is implicitly returned.
What are the advantages of using git when collaboratively working on one code base?	Using git while working on one local machine did not significantly affect collaboration. If we were using two machines then using git for collaboration helps track changes and makes its easier to knit conflicting code together.
What kind of relationship did you and your pair have with the unit tests?	We used the unit test to see if the changes we were making were on the right track. We would write some code then we would run our rake file. Then check if they passed, failed, or error-ed.
Does your code use any methods from the Enumerable mixin? If so, where and why was it helpful?	No, We used .each_with_index , .each, and .each_char.
What was one method you and your pair used to debug code?	We used the unit tests, stack trace, and VS debugger.
What are two discussion points that you and your pair discussed when giving/receiving feedback from each other that you would be willing to share?	1) We worked really well switching roles, taking breaks, and having nice environment to work. 2) We did a really good job talking through the waves together. We broke down the requirements and outlined what the method would need to do, then we mapped out our solutions and logic with psuedocode before we sat down to code it.

Interesting way to structure the pool of letters.

[CheezItMan]

This works well, but you can also use .sample as well.

[CheezItMan]

Just a note, this will destructively change letters_in_hand which could cause side effects.

[CheezItMan]

Nice data structure
