Hey There!
I have recently started a new series on twitter where I create #sketchnotes for different topics in Javascript. The attempt is to expla...

Nice article! Nicely done, too. This really touches the basic ideaal that cover some well known JS pitfalls. There are, however, 2 things I would like to debate.
First of which, when comparing 42 with "42", I think it does not convert to number, but to string instead (widening).
Secondly, the
findMissing()
method is a nice algorithm, bit not so usefull as it's currently data aware, meaning that it now only works if 1 element is used only once in the input array. If, let's say, both 1 and 7 are each used only once, I guess it returns 8 (not actually tester this!). 8 is not in the array, so that would need further processing. If 0 elements are used once, it returns 0, which might not even be in the array. If it is, is it then used once? No way to tell. Instead, create a map of unique vales, and just keep a count. Boring, but it works ;)Hey Kasper, thanks for the feedback and the suggestions. Debates are always welcome. I have created these notes by referring to 'You find know JS' by getify on github. And there it says that the string 42 will get converted to number. github.com/getify/You-Dont-Know-JS...
Also, in the findOne problem, I had assumed that only one numner would appear once, though the Map() based solution makes sense too :)
This is super cool! Love the concept and your notes look amazing.
If I had one critique, I think this series deserves a cool cover image to match the style of the notes inside.
Thanks. Yea. Somewhere down the line I'll need to design a cover when I plan to put this all together into a book. Right now, all of them are independent.
As someone who is new to JS this is very helpful!
May I request a series on React and data flow? It's something I'm currently struggling with and I think your sketches may be helpful.
Thanks for the suggestion. I was anyways thinking of doing some on React :)
Awesome, looking forward to your next one 😊
This is interesting.
Thanks :)
Do let me know what other topics I can cover.
Hey. I've mentioned YDKJS in every post which Kyle manages. Also, I tag him in every post that I send out these sketchnotes. Check the bottom most one. @getify is none other than kyle :)
