I thought it might be fun to change gears a bit this week, and put a little Javascript programming into our Coding for Beginners class.
Don’t worry, we’ll keep it simple. And yes, this will all turn out to be relevant to what we’ve been learning about HTML
and CSS
.
Here’s the list of things we will look at:
- the console
- strings
- objects
- arrays
And how those ideas can be used to represent words and sentences.
Finally, we will peek just a bit at the notion of filters. A filter is a very powerful mechanism of arrays in Javascript that allow you to select a subset of an array that meet some criteria.
Learning filters is the beginning of understanding how search works.
Bring yourself, a laptop, and a webbrowser!

I’m so pumped for this!
(Also, we need to teach the site to be less judgemental about capitalization and whatnot because what I had before was totally a complete sentence >.>—)
