Assignment Submission: JS Adagrams

Congratulations! You're submitting your assignment. Please reflect on the assignment with these questions.

Reflection

Prompt Response
What patterns were you able to use from your Ruby knowledge to apply to JavaScript? Everything. The logic was practically identical, except for a few new helper methods to replace ruby's built-in functions.
Did you need to use different strategies to find information online about JavaScript than you would for Ruby? It was a bit easier actually to find answers online for javaScript than for Ruby for some reason, and my strategy was identical.
What was something you needed to do independent research on for this project? What did you learn? I needed to find how to delete a character in an array. I learned how to do so in one line.
What was a challenge you were able to overcome on this assignment? One challenge I was able to overcome on this assignment was understanding when to put comas versus semi colons.
What has been interesting and positive about learning a new programming language? I really like the jest testing feature. It is easy and clear to navigate, and gives back insightful feedback.
What is something to focus on your learnings in JavaScript in the next week? I will focus on learning about closures.

Major Learning Goals/Code Review

Criteria yes/no, and optionally any details/lines of code to reference
Correctly uses variables, and only uses const and let variables. The program prefers const variables. The program never uses var. ✔️
Practices best-practices in JavaScript syntax. There are semi-colons at the end of most lines that need semi-colons. Variables and functions are named with camelCase. ✔️
Correctly creates and calls functions within an object with proper syntax (parameters, return statements, etc.) ✔️
Uses correct syntax for conditional logic and iteration ✔️
Practices git with at least 3 small commits and meaningful commit messages ⚠️ One commit!! Gah! Also it just says, "all tests passing" 😾, you do need to git better here.
Utilizes unit tests to verify code; tests can run using the command $ npm test test/adagrams.test.js and we see test successes and/or failures ✔️

Functional Requirements

Functional Requirement yes/no
For the drawLetters function, there is an appropriate data structure to store the letter distribution. (You are more likely to draw an 'E' than an 'X'.) ✔️
Utilizes unit tests to verify code; all tests for drawLetters and usesAvailableLetters pass ✔️
Utilizes unit tests to verify code; all tests for scoreWord pass ✔️
Utilizes unit tests to verify code; all tests for highestScoreFrom pass ✔️

Overall Feedback

Overall Feedback Criteria yes/no
Green (Meets/Exceeds Standards) 5+ in Code Review && 3+ in Functional Requirements 💚

Code Style Bonus Awards

Was the code particularly impressive in code style for any of these reasons (or more...?)

Quality Yes?
Perfect Indentation
Descriptive/Readable
Logical/Organized

Summary

Nicely done Alice. You hit the learning goals here. Other than better git hygiene, you did quite well.

This seems the long way to do things... but it does work
