WK4: Discussion

Please explain in your own words what's the importance of Bootstrap for you?

Do you require to use CSS in order to use the Bootstrap styles?

What are some of the different things you can do with Bootstrap (pg. 26-39?

Answer:

Bootstrap is important to web development because it is a library of previously made code that does not have to be rediscovered during development. Bootstrap brings an approach to better, faster, stronger web development. Bootstrap also creates a more mobile friendly code.

You are not required to use CSS in order to use Bootstrap styles. They are first referenced in the heading of the HTML document. Then you can call them as if you are calling a CSS file. You must add class=”something”.

Bootstrap sets basic global display, typography, and link styles. You can add containers, a grid system, and use pre-made media queried.

Lesson 19 Discussion

Please create a blog on dev.to with the following information:

1.Explain in your own words the lesson.

2.Include the following questions:
Why should you consider using an enum over using a String or an Int to identify options?

Today’s lesson was Enumerations and Switches. How to use them and how to shorten code or using a shortcut for conditionals. An enumeration defines a common type for a group of related values. It lets you manipulate the values safely within the code. The values in an Enum are called cases and called with the “case” keyword. You can also match values in an Enum with a Switch statement. Switch statements can replace conditionals and allows for faster and less typing.

You should use enums instead of strings or Ints to identify values that are related. This allows you to manipulate the values with less code and prevents coders from having to write a conditional statement for each value.

Lesson 18 Discussion

Explain in your own words the lesson.
Include the following questions: Why should developers use adaptive layout tools in their applications? What is the difference between Auto Layout, constraints, and stack views?

A. Lesson 18 was about creating our first app on XCode and learning how to use functions in XCode like the Auto Layout, constraints and stack views.
B. Auto Layout is the system that XCode uses to make the app adaptive to the screen size of the device it’s displayed on. Constraints are parameters set and are unmoved regardless of the screen size. The Stack View option aligns the elements either horizontally or vertically in relation to the screen size.

Lesson 16 Discussion
Please create a blog on dev.to with the following information:

Explain in your own words the lesson.
Include the following questions:
For the app you’re thinking of, what’s an example of an input the
brain would take?
What’s an example of a result it would return to display in the
user interface?

A. Lesson 16 was about the Chat bot and how we can control the chatbot by changing the questions or the User Input. That is the input info which goes into the Conversation View controller which hold the data stored for this app. It also determines what Answer to give.
B. For my app, the input that the brain would take would be the type of vehicle that makes a certain engine sound. The return would be the correct engine sound or a Bool that gave a true or false answer to what engine sound went with what vehicle.

Lesson 15 Discussion:

Explain the lesson in your own words
Include the following questions: What is the difference between a function and a method? Why are structures a better way to define data than just declaring a series of variables?

A. The lesson for 15 was the Structures lesson. It teaches how to build structures and how structures can be used to create custom types. It explains the difference between methods and functions. Methods are associated with an object and a function is called by a name.
B. It also explains why it is better to use a structure rather than a series of variables. Variables would be too much code which would be too complicated to read. An structures can be reused instead of rewriting the series of variables over and over again.

Please explain in your own words what is the importance of responsive web design for you?

Responsive web design is important in web development because it is the new format the internet world has adopted. A website, or a business for this matter, will not be successful without keeping in touch with mobile users. There are more mobile users now than desktop users. Responsive web design is a format that scales web content to match the screen it is being viewed on. This means the content is viewed successfully no matter the device being used. This method keeps the website in connection with mobile users. It also makes the content easier to work on.

Arrays and Loops

Why do you think arrays in Swift only support a collection of
objects of the same type?
a. Because the array type only refers to the elements in the
array
How can you access objects within an array one at a time?
a. Use a “for in” loop to move around in the array.
How might you check if an array is empty?
a. Use an isEmpty function

Lesson 11 Discussion

Why do you think conditionals are important?
a. Conditionals give the operation something to do after interaction
with the user.
b. Conditionals allow the internal workings of a function to be
hidden.
Give a set of instructions on how you thing a thermostat program should work and “bold/underline” the conditionals.

var bestRoomTemp = 70
if bestRoomTemp < 70 {"its a lil chilli in here"}
else if bestRoomTemp > 70{"its hot as Hell in here"}
else {"its just right in here"}
