Welcome to your daily practice challenge! You only need to do one challenge per day. For example, if your project is named "code-challenge-1a-", then you should only be looking at challenges > 1a.js .

• You should receive a daily link in the Techtonica Roadmap. Once you click it, there will be a page with the code challenge name and an "Accept this assignment" button. Click "Accept this assignment".
• You should then see a page that says "You are ready to go!" and "Your assignment has been created here:". Click the github link provided, which will take you to your new repo. If you get a 500 error, refresh the page a few times, and you should get the correct page in a few seconds.
• Click the green "Clone or download" button. Copy the URL text provided.
• In your terminal make sure your current directory is where you normally keep coding projects.
• Enter git clone <paste-URL-here>. Ex. git clone https://github.com/Techtonica/code-challenge-1a-chochan.git
• You should now be able to navigate to your new project: cd code-challenge-1a-chochan. You can check on the name using ls first to make sure.
• Open it in your preferred IDE. Ex: code .
• If today's code challenge is 1a, find challenges > 1a.js and get to work.
• Check out the Testing section below to take advantage of our unit tests.
• When time is almost up, submit whatever you have - we may be able to give you some advice, and you can pick up where you left off some other time.
• If you haven't finished, note that it is still "in progress" in the Roadmap, and anywhere else you are keeping track of things.
• Stop working and move on to the rest of the day's tasks. You can come back to the code challenge when you have extra time later; these are important practice, but not a priority to complete.

• In your terminal, enter git status to make sure that today's challenge file is the only thing you changed.
• git add just that file. Ex: git add challenges/1a.js
• Enter git status to make sure challenges/1a.js is staged.
• git commit -m "solve 1a" to commit what youve added.
• git push to push your changes up to GitHub.
• You may receive an email alert if you receive feedback on your submission.

You will end up with a lot of projects on your computer called code-challenge-* after a few weeks. If they are saved up in GitHub, and especially if they pass all the tests, there is no reason to keep them - go ahead and delete. You can always download again later.

• In your terminal, navigate to today's code challenge project; for example, cd code-challenge-1a-chochan.
• Since the day's code challenge is 1a, I only need to test that file with this command: npm run test spec/1a-spec.js
• It should fail if you haven't started yet.
• open challenges > 1a.js and get to work, running the test command again whenever you like.

• 4 specs, 0 failures Finished in 0.009 seconds: No failures - they all passed!

• SyntaxError: Unexpected token ')': This most likely means your return statement is empty. Start entering your code in today's "challenges" file.

  Another problem could be that your parenthesis don't match perfectly.
