Comprehension Questions

Question	Answer
What patterns were you able to use from your Ruby knowledge to apply to JavaScript?	Duck typing!
What was a challenge you were able to overcome on this assignment?	I wanted to not rewrite the same methods multiple times. I wanted the highest scoring word method to not care whether the data passed to it was from the player or the game, so I created helper methods.
What is your favorite thing about learning a new programming language?	It's like putting together puzzle pieces or a cryptogram!
What is your least favorite thing about learning a new programming language?	having to look EVERYTHING up. even the basic stuff.
Do you have any recommendations on how we could improve this project for the next cohort?	No, I think it was good practice to apply new language skills to a relatively familiar project.
