Objectives
Data Types, Built-In Functions, & Methods
Break
For Loops & the Accumulator Pattern
Q & A
Use variables, for loops, arrays, objects, and basic String & Number methods
Describe some of the different data types in JavaScript
Describe & implement the accumulator pattern
Have fun!
Go to repl.it and type in JavaScript
Copy the following into the box on the left and then hit run (or Command + Enter)
console.log('Hello World!')
Programming languages rely upon a variety of data types to perform all kinds of computations
Together we'll cover the following:
Alright, let's code some stuff!
Functions are blocks of code that can be reused
Methods are functions that are associated with an object
Numbers, Strings, and Arrays all have methods that can be called on them
JavaScript has some methods built-in and other functions we will need to write ourselves.
What if we have a list where we don't know the length?
For Loops allow us to make multiple iterations over a list
You'll find them in all kinds of languages, including JavaScript
Patterns give us more tools to solve complex problems we come across
Learning a programming language is like learning a speaking language
In this language, we typically write outside-in
Use variables, for loops, arrays, and basic String & Number methods
