Exercises

Record your screen and audio while completing Practice Challenge #1 or #2 from the lesson. Please keep your video under 4 minutes. Practice articulating what you are doing every step of the way so you are prepared to "pair" program. Record your video in whatever way is easiest - we prefer Loom because it's really easy to share a URL to the video; meaning you don't have to worry about locating and uploading a saved file. Zoom and QuickTime are also options.

Share the link to your recording here:

And be ready to share your recording in the Mod 0 Kickoff Session!

FAQs

• I already did these challenges before I realized I had to record them. What do I do? That was on purpose - you got practice, now that you are a little more fluent, please re-do one while recording
• Building off the previous questions - do I delete the directory? You can. Or you can use a different name such as home2. This is about giving you an opportunity to practice and share with your Instructor where you are, so they can support you.

Self Evaluation

Type your answers to the questions below:

• How confident do you feel in your understanding and fluency with the Terminal commands?

solid 5 of 7

• Look at the vocabulary list at the top of the lesson. Are you comfortable using all terms listed there? If not, what can you do about that?

The vocabulary seems common enough and within a domain of understanding at this point

• What do you still need to practice or learn? How will you do that?

leveraging the built in help screens in Terminal

• Considering the reading about Asking Technical Questions - do you have any questions you need to bring to the Kickoff Session (where you'll have about 20 minutes of Terminal review time with your small group)?

-formatting is always a big concern, want to be sure the technical portions of a question are properly formatted with in-line code formatting or fenced code blocks
