These are a series of JavaScript exercises intended to be used alongside the curriculum at 'The Odin Project'. They start simple and easy but get more complex and involved as you progress through them.
There will eventually be a suggested order of completion, but at this time since we are still in the process of creating more exercises the order is subject to change and has not yet been specified. However, there are a few exercises that make a good "starting point". Feel free to at least start with these:
- Hello World
- Repeat String
- Reverse String
How To Use These Exercises
Before you start you should have a few things installed on your machine:
- NPM. To check if you have NPM installed, type
npm --versionin your terminal. If you get backCommand 'npm' not found, but can be installed with:, do NOT follow the instructions in the terminal to install withapt-get. (This causes permission issues.) Instead, install Node with NVM by following the instructions here. - Jasmine. Jasmine is a testing framework for JavaScript. Type
jasmine -vto check for it. If you need to install it, typenpm install -g jasmineto do so. - A copy of this repository. Copies of repositories on your machine are called clones. If you need help cloning, you can learn how here
Each exercise includes 3 files: a markdown file with a description of the task, an empty (or mostly empty) JavaScript file, and a set of tests. To complete an exercise, you'll need to go to the exercise directory with cd exerciseName in the terminal and run jasmine 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. Some of the exercises have test conditions defined in their spec file that are defined as 'xit' compared to 'it'. This is purposeful. After you pass your first 'it', you will change the next 'xit' to an 'it' and test your code again. You'll do this until all conditions are satisfied.
The first exercise, helloWorld, will walk you through the process in-depth.
Solutions
Solutions for these exercises can be found in this repo on the 'solutions' branch.
A quick note!
The exercise generator-exercise is not actually an exercise; it is a script that generates exercises. It was created to help efficiently write these exercises.
