The purpose of this assignment is to improve your understanding and develop your skills with iteration, one of the foundational concepts of programming and software development. For these exercises, you will need to use for-loops to arrive at the correct solution.
You are not to use helper methods like.split() , substr(), .reverse(). The goal is to learn how to manage iteration manually to solve problems.
# (1) Go to your muktek/assignments directory and create the `js-iteration-basics` folder for this assignment
cd ~/muktek/assignments
mkdir assignment--js-iteration-basics
cd assignment--js-iteration-basics
# (2) Download the assignment-files with curl from the assignment repo and unzip
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/muktek/assignment--js-iteration-basics/master/assignment-files.zip > assignment-files.zip
unzip assignment-files.zipThe goal of these exercises is to write the logic in the function to solve the problem. The statements/declarations in the console.assert(...) describe the expected output from the function when provided with a given input and should evaluate to true if you have written the function correctly.
Here is how you will answer each exercise:
(1) Read the problem
(2) Look at the expected output
- you instructors have written these
console.assert()statements to ensure that you have written the exercise function correctly
(3) Write the function and the logic
// ++ (1) The problem :
/**
* makeArrayFromCharacters()
*
* Write a function called `makeArrayFromCharacters` that takes
* a string and creates an array of characters for each element.
*
* You must use a for-loop to solve this problem.
**/
// ++ (3a) Write the function...
function makeArrayFromCharacters(someString){
// ++ (3b) Example solution
var charactersArray = []
for(var i = 0; i < someString.length; i++){
charactersArray.push(someString[0])
}
return charactersArray
}
// --------------- Don't Touch ------------------
// ++ (2a) Check the expected behavior
let output1 = makeArrayFromCharacters('hello')
console.assert( output1[0] === 'h' )
console.assert( output1[1] === 'e' )
console.assert( output1[2] === 'l' )
console.assert( output1[3] === 'l' )
console.assert( output1[4] === 'o' )
// => in other words, output1 should be ['h','e','l','l','o']
// ++ (2b)
let output2 = makeArrayFromCharacters('sunshine')
console.assert( output2[0] === 's' )
console.assert( output2[1] === 'u' )
console.assert( output2[2] === 'n' )
console.assert( output2[3] === 's' )
console.assert( output2[4] === 'h' )
console.assert( output2[5] === 'i' )
console.assert( output2[6] === 'n' )
console.assert( output2[7] === 'e' )
// => in other words, output2 should be ['s','u','n','s','h','i','n','e']
// ++ (2c)
let output3 = makeArrayFromCharacters('burrito')
console.assert( output2[0] === 'b' )
console.assert( output2[1] === 'u' )
console.assert( output2[2] === 'r' )
console.assert( output2[5] === 't' )
// => in other words, output3 should be ['b','u','r','r','i','t','o']
