Learn HTML
1) The unordered list is used when a list is required and the order is meaningless. There are no numerical ordering involved.
2) The style of bullets can be altered with the type attribute, typicaly with the desgin circle, disc or square.
3) In relations to answer 1 above, the ordere list is a list where order does have a meaning. There are numerical ordering invovled.
4) In an ordered list, the start attribute can change the starting number in the numbered list. The type attribute can also change numbers into lettering and numbering types, such as Roman Numerals.
Learn CSS
1) Everything is contained in a box. Content existing in the box needs space to separate themselves from the wall of the box. Paddings are used to pad themselves away from the inner walls of the border. With the box itself, there are other boxes around. In order to separate themselves from each other, the margin can be set, so there’s space enclosing the outside of the wall.
2) The four parts of a box model consists of the following: the content box that houses the actual content to display, the padding box that wraps around the content, the border box that separates the content from other boxes, and lastly the margin box that wraps around the outside of the border box.
Learn JS
1) Any of the 6 primative data type can been stored in Array: boolean, number, string, null, undefined and ojbects.
2) const people is a valid array. It is a nested array and each value can be accessed by first finding the index of the outer array and also finding the index of the inner arrays.
3) +=: the addition assignment first adds the value then assigns the result to the variable
-=: the subtraction assignment first subtracts the value then assings the result to the variable
/=: the division assignment first divides the variable by the value and the assigns the result to the variable
*=: the muliplicatoins assignment first multiplies the variable by the value and then assigns the result to the variable
%=: the remainder assignment first divides the variable by the value and then assigns the reaminder to the variable
4) The result returns a string “10dog”. When a Number is added to boolean, the boolean is casted as Number because the + operator assumes a numeric addition and not any other concatenations. The Number casted for false is 0, hence 10 + 0 returns 0. The next concatenations assumes a string concatnation with the string “dog”, hence “10dog” is the resulting output.
5) A conditional statement used in a real world would be checking if the password inputted matches to the user that’s trying to access an account.
6) A loop is usefull in JavaScript when there are certain steps that need to be repeated a finite amount. One example is to loop through an array and console log the content of the array.
CSS has been the weakest portion of the full stack for me. I have been primarily studying JS, so design in HTML and CSS have been quite lacking for me.
