HINTS:
- Make sure you are documenting all of your work in your journal by putting a screenshot in when you pass a step!
- (When you pass a step it will turn green on the lefthand side and give you a checkmark...this is when you should take a screenshot of your entire screen and put in your journal).
- If you get stuck...there is help in the bottom right corner. (You can also ask me...I LOVE THIS MODULE!)
- You can restart the exercise if you have changed to much of the code and can't remember how it started.
- You can get on the Code Academy blog for hints and also see other people's posts about levels.
- You have to be VERY detailed and EVERY single thing must be correct, spaces, ;, {}, etc....
