Day 41 – Lesson 4

A few days ago I had finished Lesson 3 for Launch School but didn’t immediately go to Lesson 4. That’s what yesterday was for! There are 12 assignments, including a summary and a quiz at the end. I’ve reached the 4th assignment, which goes over in greater detail the PEDAC process. I’ve been wanting something like this for a while because I was starting to think that maybe I wasn’t fully understanding parts of it when trying to solve a problem. It’s like they knew I needed more practice! I was mostly getting tripped up on the ‘Rules’ and ‘Data Structure’ parts. Maybe it’s the ‘Two-Layer’ problem that I’m dealing with, but I’m trying my hardest to practice simple ruby problems and learn all that there is to know. I noticed that loops are a tad bit fuzzy, accessing elements and keys in hashes and arrays, and the difference between assigning elements and accessing them. Tonight there is the first Hack and Hang for CFBCS so I’m heading there soon, to see what it’s about. Tomorrow I will finish notes for PEDAC.
