Fork and clone the enums-exercises repository.

$ cd ~/turing/1module/
$ git clone [email protected]:USERNAME/enums-exercises.git
$ cd enums-exercises

Create a branch so that you're not changing master:

$ git checkout -b make-tests-pass

After cloning the repository down, and checking out a new branch, we are ready to get started on these enumerables exercises.

The goal of these exercises is to help you understand enumerables, both how they work and how they can be replicated through the use of the #each, the basis of all enumerables.

You should perform the exercises in the order below:

• map
• select
• find (aka detect)
• sort_by
• count
• reject
• reduce
• any?
• all?
• none?
• one?
• group_by
• zip

You should perform the pattern test first, and then the test.

For example, you should work on map_pattern_test.rb followed by map_test.rb Upon completing that, you should do select_pattern_test.rb and then select_test.rb and so forth.

If you find an error in one of the exercises, then it needs to be fixed upstream in the generators or templates.

For example, someone discovered that there were two tests with the same name in the all_pattern_test.rb exercise:

def test_all_gone
  skip
  words = ["gone", "gone", "gone", "gone", "gone", "gone", "gone"]
  all_gone = true
  # Your code goes here
  assert all_gone
end

def test_all_gone
  skip
  words = ["gone", "gone", "gone", "gone", "gone", "there", "gone", "gone"]
  # Your code goes here
  refute all_gone
end

The second test should have been named test_not_all_gone.

In order to fix this, we need to locate the problem generator: lib/generator/all_problem.rb.

exercise << Problem.new(
  "all_gone",
  {"words" => %w(gone gone gone gone gone gone gone)},
  {"all_gone" => "assert"},
  "word == 'gone'"
).assignment!

exercise << Problem.new(
  "all_gone",
  {"words" => %w(gone gone gone gone gone there gone gone)},
  {"all_gone" => "refute"},
  "word == 'gone'"
)

The name of the second problem can be changed.

Then regenerate the exercises with:

rake generate

Finally, run the tests:

rake test

Check out master:

$ git checkout master

Create a new branch:

$ git checkout -b new-exercises

Make up one extra test for each test suite. Remember to delete the implementation once it's passing, and add a skip to it.

$ git diff
$ git add -A
$ git commit -m "Add more exercises"

Push your branch up to GitHub:

$ git push -u origin new-exercises

Submit a pull request (go to the front page of your own enums-exercises repository, there should be a button to compare/create a pull request for the branch that you just pushed up).

origin is your fork of the project. We'll need to connect to the upstream repository.

To do this, add a new remote named upstream that points to the Turing School repository:

$ git remote add upstream [email protected]:turingschool/enums-exercises.git

Then pull down the updated version of upstream:

$ git fetch upstream

And now make sure you're on master:

$ git checkout master
$ git branch # should say *master

Make master point to the exact commit that upstream/master is pointing at:

$ git reset --hard upstream/master

For each method of interest there are two files of interest. Let's look at map as an example:

1. exercises/map_pattern_test.rb
2. exercises/map_test.rb

In the map_pattern_test.rb you'll find a collection of exercises which do what map is good at, but they do it just with each. Then in map_test.rb you'll find the same examples using map.

We recommend you...

• Open your text editor with two panes (left and right)
• In the left pane, open the pattern file like map_pattern_test.rb
• In the right pane, open the matching file like map_test.rb
• Run the map_pattern_test.rb and solve the first exercise
• Run the map_test.rb and solve the same exercise
• Repeat for each matching pair of exercises
• Commit your solutions after finishing each file
