I beg somebody to help me with homestudy link I beg

RobinLongstride:
Does my not being a graduate reduce my chances of getting into the Andela fellowship program?

hell no it doesn't

Guys check out my lil project. wanna know your reviews:

nice. However I tried it on my phone and it kept telling me I got the correct answer even when I typed in gibberish or left it blank. You might want to look into that.

Nice one bro...At a point i entered nothing and it still output correct...So might need to check that..
Awesome

Thanks. All corrected!

Thanks. All corrected!

I was trying to make the input case-insensitive, so I tried:

if (response.toLocaleLowerCase === answer.toLocaleLowerCase)

Obviously didn't work!

Any suggestion?

Turn the input to LowerCase regardless and then now you know whatever you are comparing with is in lowercase or you can use regex ignore case.

add parenthesis after toLowerCase i.e it should be toLowerCase()

Please anyone I have a question, must someone has a coding or programming knowledge before he can apply for Andela scholarship? Please I need urgent answer. Thank you

Yes

Thanks brother. It worked!

Then convert to Lowe case

nice, but i don't think there is need to req for user's firstname, lastname, gender, since it doesn't serve any purpose, also try to randomize the riddles

If na like so person dey get credit alerts life for better na.
For a start that's awesome.

There is... It welcomes you with the full name and a appropriate address which comes from the gender...


I will see to the randomization!

I love your program. Particularly I love the background-colour you've used - it's beautiful!

Here are a few things I think you should look into:

1. You should try to make a custom dialog-box for displaying your quiz-questions and collecting user-inputs. The default dialog displayed by the 'prompt' keyword provides the user with a checkbox, which (when selected) prevents the page from creating additional dialogs. And if that happens, your program becomes completely useless.

2. I noticed (from your code) that you're only checking if the user's gender is 'male'; in which case you welcome the user with: 'You are welcome Mr....', otherwise you say 'You are welcome Ms....'. Now, what happens is this: If I enter 'olodo' as my gender, it says 'You are welcome Ms...'. Also, even if I enter the string 'Male or MALE' as my gender, I'm welcomed as female. It means your program doesn't properly cater to my gender if I enter anything other than 'male' as my gender.

Here's what I think you should do:

- Specifically check to see if the user has entered either string 'male' or 'female' as gender, and then welcome him/her appropriately. If the user's gender is neither 'male' nor 'female', you should display a generic welcome-message.

You could modify your code to do stuff like this:

if (gender.toLowerCase() == "male" )
{
alert(`You are welcome Mr. ${firstName} ${lastName}, here are the riddles`);
}
else if (gender.toLowerCase() == "female" )
{
alert(`You are welcome Ms. ${firstName} ${lastName}, here are the riddles`);
}
else
{
alert(`You are welcome ${firstName} ${lastName}, here are the riddles`);
}

of course, you could also replace the 'if-else-if' construct with a 'switch' construct.

3. Finally, I notice you're using the statement-terminator (';') in a manner that makes it look like you don't really understand its purpose. Yes, the program works, but it sends a negative message.

As an example, consider the following snippets I've extracted from your source:

if (gender == "male" ){
alert(`You are welcome Mr. ${firstName} ${lastName}, here are the riddles`);
}else {
alert(`You are welcome Ms. ${firstName} ${lastName}, here are the riddles`);
}; What exactly is this semicolon doing here?


How about this?

function start(quiz){
let score = 0;
// main game loop
for (const [question, answer] of quiz){
const response = ask(question);
check(response, answer);
}; Again, what is this semicolon doing here?


//end of main game loop

It's obvious those are not typos, because the pattern is repeated all over your source.

Besides those, I think you've done a very good job!

Blessings...

My brother, how far? It's me; we met at the EPIC Tower (for the Cycle 36 Interview) and walked home together.

How are you doing?

Wow, I'm obliged! Thanks for your analysis. Will see to your suggestions. Thank you!

What do you mean by custom dialog? Like Form?

Hi friends,


Just completed my home study test yesterday, how long till the next phase of the test, what am I to expect again if successful?

What's the next line of action. Abeg I be newbie...just trying to learn JavaScript.

I will appreciate your response.

cycle 37 right? technical assessment is next. It may take a week or two sha. Keep learning until then.

Please could you tell me what these things entail?

- Personality Test
- Home Study Test
- Technical Assessment Test

I applied for cycle 38.

There's really nothing to the personality test. Just try to answer it as honestly as possible. The home study test is a Google form test which has like 30 questions (multichoice). They are not timed and it's better to study the home study curriculum well, Google too can be of help for tricky parts.
It's better you take your time to do it. If you pass this phase, you are sent another technical test on qualified io(multichoice with few coding questions). It's timed, but you won't run out of time
After the qualified io, if you did well, you'll be invited for an interview(you'll submit a code challenge before the interview, and defend it to the interviewers).
If the interview is successful, you get selected for boot camp and so on....
Note: if you've not gotten your self right with programming, you shouldn't go to boot camp, but it's not too late to start working on yourself rigorously.

One last thing please.
What then is the nature of the other questions?

I'm yet to find out. I haven't taken the technical test yet

Oh I see
What kind of questions are in the home study test then?

why don't you attempt it first to know
