Quality Assurance and Testing with Chai - Test if a Value Falls within a Specific Range

1

Tell us what’s happening:

I’ve noticed a shift in the quality of the recent courses, and I’m curious if anyone else feels the same. The earlier lessons were packed with detailed information, clear explanations of what was being done, and why we were doing it. However, the current course and the one before it seems to drop you in the deep end without much context or explanation. They just tell you to figure it out and look things up elsewhere, this might just be me, and I am being stupid just curious if I am alone in this. for example, the current question I am on is learning about the approximately Asserts and it did not tell me what approximately dose when all it could have said was you need to make the 3rd value the difference of the two other values when this is what it told me

Asserts that the actual is equal to expected, to within a +/- delta range.

I don’t know if it is just me but that does not make any sense was, I supposed to do something before this that explained what the delta range is or what the +/- thing is

yes but you have things backward, this course you are doing is one of the older ones, and it has not been updated yet

3

it is asking to check that the absolute difference between actual and expected is less than the value of delta, it’s explained a bit more mathy

I really appreciate FreeCodeCamp and the opportunity to learn for free. I’m just wondering if there are plans to update this and the previous content. If updates are coming soon, I might wait to continue also thank you for the response I guess that I need to learn more about approximately Assert I just look at the hint answer and saw that it was the difference of the 2

the current plans are talked about here:

you should not wait for the update, the first release is this month and it’s html/css/js, it will take more time for backend
