In addition to what guente02 and isArray my guys suggested, you could check out Brad Traversy's course online. He has two videos on YouTube: One where he used the old XHR and the new Fetch so you can see the difference then another he used fetch purely then Steven Griffith has about 20+ videos on his channel on it. He talked about some other things too. If you search for 'fetchAPI CRUD' you will see some other articles from scotch and Jesse.sh I think. Cheers!

thanks a whole lot

sorry are you using the fetch api for tdd? or where?
and also are you cycle 39?

here is the task:
Given a non-negative integer, return an array or a list of the individual digits in order.

separate multiple digit numbers into an array

Parameters
n: Number - Number to be converted


Return Value
Array<Number> - Array of separated single digit integers

Examples
n Return Value
123 [1,2,3]
8675309 [8,6,7,5,3,0,9]

Have you been able to solve this?@samnelly4u

From the word 'Fetch', it's used to call your endpoints/URL from the backend to the frontend. Using fetch, your template comes alive. Those buttons become active, the form submission gets stored in a db at the click of a button et.c

Hello guys.
Just for encouragement:
I only started learning programming around May this year, and I just made it into the fellowship.
So if you just started programming, you too can get in soon, but u have to give it your all.
Right from May till now, it has been non-stop, no-sleep learning.
Three weeks before the bootcamp project, I had zero knowledge of anything backend. Node/express/database, I didn't know any of them. At the start of the bootcamp project, I didn't know how to use git. How I was able to cover so much in very little time still surprises me.
Get good resources and keep studying hard!. Your hard work would pay off soon.
Special thanks to my ogas Don Pikko, guente02, isarray for assisting whenever I ask questions here.
The journey begins, there is still a lot to learn.

Won't be a bad idea if you shared with us some of the resources you used. Links

On what in particular?.
The Mosh Hamedani Udemy course on Node/Express (isArray shared with me) helped a lot in understanding how to build APIs, authorization/authentication with jwt e.t.c.
Honestly, aside from that, most of what I used were official documentations of packages.
I used this for git:
https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/comparing-workflows#gitflow-workflow .
If u can specify what areas in particular, I might be able to provide links.
Also there are some really helpful links in your bootcamp project manual, click on them. I ignored those links at first, but later on I realized some of them were really good and straight to the point. They helped to some extent.

Any cycle 41 applicant here Or are my the only one...lol

Boss I'd like to get the link on the nodejs....thanks

You can send me a mail. It is a video tutorial. About 7GB

I applied for cycle 40, i didn't hear from them atall.. I had to reapply for cycle 41

Okay...All the same...How far have you gone with course content? Still battling with JavaScript here oh!

I applied for Cycle 41 too. Have you received the home study test mail?

Nope bro...I'm thinking it should be by 7th December.

Noni abeg wanted to ask....during the bootcamp daily challenges, are we allowed to google or stackoverflow when we get stuck??

Why not?.
But daily tasks are mainly writing blogposts, so you don't need stackoverflow.

The 4thweek challenge in particular. I have been learning template engines with ejs and pug. It turns out we're going to be writing Ajax. I'm a total novice in that field. I'm currently in 2nd week challenge.

Hi.
Fourth week you'll be using the Fetch API (which is very simple) not Ajax (except things have changed). What were u asked to use in the instructions?
I saw some Fetch API links shared in the previous page.
This is a short and simple tutorial on Fetch:
https://flaviocopes.com/fetch-api/

By the way, you might not even start challenge 4 in bootcamp. On the last day of bootcamp, we were only expected to have completed challenge 3 of the project.
Our defence on the last day was on the project up to challenge 3.
I just started my challenge 4 yesterday.
Next week, what you'll be doing mostly is modifying your challenge 1 and 2 work based on the feedbacks you'll receive from your LFA.
However, that might not be the case for all bootcamps (this was my first bootcamp, I dont know how other bootcamps are).
So its always good to be prepared for everything.

Thanks Noni for your quick responses and all..you've been helpful.... if you don't mind can u throw more light on what those challenges 1-4 are all all about..what programming language(s) did u guys use to implement the challenges? Not as if we are expecting same thing in our bootcamp but I believe it would help newbies like us know the scope generally. Thanks once again

Node.js, Express, PostgreSQL for database and fetch api.

Thanks fizzle, pls is node.js different from express? I normally see them combined tho.

express is a framework used when working with node js. Don't worry, you will grab all this things with time. Just keep studying

Programmers in the house. i need explanation on the purpose of this code: please what is the purpose of (!!) in javascript

timpd = (!!arr[i-1][j-1]?arr[i-1][j-1]:0)+(!!arr[i-1][j]?arr[i-1][j]:0);
arr[i].push(timpd);


i understand below is a "class".

.block:nth-child(even) {
background: red;
}

when do i use nth-child....

i searched google but still got confused

I'll jejely skip the array part for now, perhaps my ogas at the top would come through soon enough.

The nth-child() is a type of css selector that matches every element that is the nth child - regardless of type - of its parent.

To give context, I'll use the example you provided.

.block:nth-child(even) {
background: red;
}

The code above would apply a red background to every even (2nd,4th,6th...nth) child of its parent that has a class of block.

Find below a mock structure of how a typical html markup looks like.

div
p.block
p.block
p.block
/div

The div is the parent of all the p tags and each p tag has a block class.

Just to be abundantly clear, the style rule above would apply to just the 2nd p tag because it's index/position is even in nature and it has a block class.

Hello, what data subscription do you use to complete the home study course. Just like to know.

Thanks
