with JQuery! This is the context in which I’m used to seeing JS, and it thankfully was indeed more concrete than the JS abstract, server side stuff we were writing before. Browser-based Tic Tac Toe and Towers of Hanoi (my old enemy, but perhaps this is the last time!?) were pretty straightforward. Snake was a little slower going because we had to write the game logic ourselves, but I think (hope) writing JS is becoming slightly clearer to me as time goes on. When I got home I also took the time to review the inital JS notes on closures, this/that, and ways to invoke a function, and that should help a lot. It was all pretty abstract to me the first time I read it, but now, many debugging sessions later..!
