## How To Use These Exercises
1. Fork and clone this repository. To learn how to fork a repository, see the GitHub documentation on how to [fork a repo](https://docs.github.com/en/get-started/quickstart/fork-a-repo).
- Copies of repositories on your machine are called clones. If you need help cloning to your local environment you can learn how from the GitHub documentation on [cloning a repository](https://docs.github.com/en/github/creating-cloning-and-archiving-repositories/cloning-a-repository-from-github/cloning-a-repository).

2. Before you start working on any exercises, you should first ensure you have the following installed:
- **NPM**. You should have installed NPM already in our [Installing Node.js](https://www.theodinproject.com/paths/foundations/courses/foundations/lessons/installing-node-js) lesson. Just in case you need to check, type `npm --version` in your terminal. If you get back `Command 'npm' not found, but can be installed with:`, **do not follow the instructions in the terminal** to install with `apt-get` as this causes permission issues. Instead, go back to the installation lesson and install Node with NVM by following the instructions there.
- **Jest**. After cloning this repository to your local machine and installing NPM, go into the newly created directory (`cd javascript-exercises`) and run `npm install`. This will install Jest and set up the testing platform based on our preconfigured settings.

- A `solutions` directory that contains a solution and the same test file with all of the tests unskipped.
To complete an exercise, you'll need to go to the exercise directory with `cd exerciseName` in the terminal and run `npm test exerciseName.spec.js`. This should run the test file and show you the output. When you first run a test, it will fail. This is by design! You must open the exercise file and write the code needed to get the test to pass.
4. Some of the exercises have test conditions defined in their spec file as `test.skip` compared to `test`. This is purposeful. After you pass one `test`, you will change the next `test.skip` to `test` and test your code again. You'll do this until all conditions are satisfied. **All tests must pass at the same time**, and you should not have any `test.skip` instances by the time you finish an exercise.
5. Once you successfully finish an exercise, check the `solutions` directory within each exercise to compare it with yours.
- You should not be checking the solution for an exercise until you finish it!
