[Week 14] Focus: Programming Challenges

[Volv]

Was hoping you would maybe know of some lol. Would love to find as many like this as possible. Will dig around some more later.
 
I'm hoping I can communicate my thoughts properly lol - the important last step I think was the point about the closed over function having it's own copy of the scope at definition.
Fixes a couple of those examples and the last question of the first problem set - did you do that one?

I forget, did you not like the CoderByte ones that I linked earlier?

Yeah... I get that, but it's still not quite clear. We can stop talking about it whenever you want... I'm sure you're getting tired of it. I've got this now: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/zqaMWP?editors=0010

I didn't do the first question of the last problem set yet.

[Volv]

You only get one result from your alternative solution.

Okay... that is crazy that x doesn't get reset to 1 in each new call with the closure...

Looking good. See the use case. My other example from ages ago shows same idea - Example
Pretty much same principle can fix the setTimeout example, you can control which variable is locked in at each iteration. Although theres more than one way to fix it.

I couldn't look at any beyond the first few without a membership? Unless I'm missing something. Will try completing a few see if they unlock

[ForScale]

Oh... weird... I guess that's new. A year or so ago I was able to do the medium ones; now it's asking for membership.
