This is an overview of the basics of SQL. SQL is used in programming to manage data held in a database. In order to gather the data that we need from the database, we use queries.
Just like the title suggests, you have to guess a number from 1-10 and hope that you guess the random number that the computer picked out. In this game, you have 4 chances to guess the correct number.
I can’t say enough about how valuable the experience of creating my first CLI project was. At first, I was really lost with all of the steps needed before going into the coding aspect. All I did up until now was learn how to code, specifically procedural Ruby and Object Oriented programming. I was always wondering about the functionality of the other files that weren’t ruby files like Gemfile, rspec, gemspec, and how they work together to create something.
I started out doing the Full Time immersive software engineering program. Coming into the full-time program, I was aware that it would be an every day, all-day grind, and I was ready for it. The first week commenced and I was putting in all of my time and effort. I was completing all the assignments on time and everything was going well thanks to my understanding of the basics of Ruby prior to starting this program. As lessons started to get harder, the pressure of not falling behind started to creep in. I would find myself trying to complete the assignments without really absorbing all of the material. I orginally chose a full-time program because I felt like I can commit to putting in a bunch of hours every day, but it just wasn’t enough. After finishing a lesson that I didn’t quite understand fully, I didn’t want to rush into the next one. I want to really master what I learned before moving on to the next lesson.
Playing tennis and coding have been my two passions in life. Due to a career ending injury which had me retire from playing tennis, a sport that I played in for 20 years, I have decided to dedicate my life to my other passion (coding). I love to create and build programs, especially games. Every time I would build some type of game, I would quickly have someone from my household play it.
