JavaScript A & DS Curriculum Walkthroughs?

Hello! I was wondering if there are any videos that walk you through the JavaScript Algorithms and Data Structures that perhaps explain, in a bit more depth, how to do these assignments.

I just completed “Learn Introductory JavaScript by building a Pyramid Generator” and am moving on to the Gradebook App but I am already stuck on the first problem.

I have found that I am struggling to understand WHY the code is what it is. I am remembering a small amount well enough to just guess and it be the correct answer, but I don’t know why that would be the proper code. The exercise doesn’t explain it well enough beforehand for me to understand, nor does it give you a reason why the code is correct after you get it right so by the time I begin the second section, where there is an expectation of understanding in the first assignment, I am already lost .

Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

Hi @calypsocodes !

I would suggest going through the new FSD javascript portion.
It goes at a much slower pace and explains a lot more so you feel more confident about the projects.

It also gives you more practice along the way so you better understand what is going on

If you go all the way to the JS fundamental review part, then you will feel better about tackling the gradebook app

Hope that helps
