Day 34 of 100DaysOfCode

Today was a pretty short day. Had a lot of other things to attend to so only had little under an hour's worth of coding time.

Started the intermediate algorithm scripting challenges at freeCodeCamp. These were fun and required some real problem-solving.

I also started reading CH 9 of Eloquent JavaScript. It's about regular expressions. Not my favorites, but I'll try to enjoy the chapter!

What I did today:

1. Started the intermediate algorithm scripting challenges

https://www.freecodecamp.org/learn/javascript-algorithms-and-data-structures/intermediate-algorithm-scripting/

What I learned from it:

  • Problem-solving skills
  • Manipulating arrays
  • Using the filter method and array functions
  • Using the arguments object

2. Started CH9 of EJS

https://eloquentjavascript.net/09_regexp.html

What I learned from it:

  • Brushed up on different methods related to regexp
  • Using sets of characters
  • Using JavaScript Date objects

Time spent learning:

Task 'FCC'. Elapsed time: 34 min 54 s
Task 'Reading_EJS'. Elapsed time: 23 min 51 s

Total time: 58 min 45 s

Time spent is tracked by my TaskTimer script and the WakaTime app.

Outro
Thank you for reading and see you all tomorrow!
