# Coursework Like learning a musical instrument, programming requires daily practise. The exercises are split into three folders: `exercises`, `mandatory` and `extra`. All homework in the `exercise` and `mandatory` section **must** be completed for homework by the following lesson. The `extra` folder contains exercises that you can complete to challenge yourself, but are not required for the following lesson. ## Solutions The solutions for this coursework can be found here: https://github.com/CodeYourFuture/JavaScript-Core-1-Coursework-Week1-Solution This is a **private** repository. Please request access from your Teachers, Buddy or City Coordinator after the start of your next lesson. ## Instructions for submission For your homework, we'll be using [**test driven development**](https://medium.com/@adityaalifnugraha/test-driven-development-tdd-in-a-nutshell-b9e05dfe8adb) to check your answers. Test driven development (or TDD) is the practice of writing tests for your code first, and then write your code to pass those tests. This is a very useful way of writing good quality code and is used in a lot of industries. You don't have to worry about knowing how this works, but if you're curious, engage with a volunteer to find out more! :) 1. Complete the challenges in each file and save it once you're happy with your changes 2. Run the script to check the results against the tests - all tests should read PASSED if you completed the challenges correctly. If a test reads FAILED, find the associated test to identify which function failed and fix it. 3. Raise a PR once you're happy with the quality of your code
