Like learning a musical instrument, programming requires daily practise.

The exercises are split into three folders: exercises, mandatory and extra. All homework in the exercise and mandatory section must be completed for homework by the following lesson.

The extra folder contains exercises that you can complete to challenge yourself, but are not required for the following lesson.

The solutions for this coursework can be found here:

• Each of the *.js files in the 1-exercises folder can be run from the terminal using the node command with the path to the file. For example, node 1-exercises/A-undefined/exercise.js can be run from the root of the project.
• To run the tests in the 2-mandatory folder, run npm run test from the root of the project (after having run npm install once before).
• To run the tests in the 3-extra folder, run npm run extra-tests from the root of the project (after having run npm install once before).

For your homework, we'll be using test driven development to check your answers. Test driven development (or TDD) is the practice of writing tests for your code first, and then write your code to pass those tests. This is a very useful way of writing good quality code and is used in a lot of industries. You don't have to worry about knowing how this works, but if you're curious, engage with a volunteer to find out more! :)

1. Complete the challenges in each file and save it once you're happy with your changes
2. Run the script to check the results against the tests - all tests should read PASSED if you completed the challenges correctly. If a test reads FAILED, find the associated test to identify which function failed and fix it.
3. Raise a PR once you're happy with the quality of your code
