I
started the day on Chapter 31 Getting the Current Date and Time. We
worked with new Date() which creates a Date Object. We converted it to a
string with .toString() and we also made arrays to convert the 0 - 1
number it returns when you use .getDay() to get a day into a day like
Monday, Tuesday, etc.
Next was Chapter 32 Extracting Parts of the Date and Time. After that, i worked on Chapter 33 Specifying a Date and Time. Next was Chapter 34, Changing Elements of Date and Time. When counting seconds, remember that there's no 60th second, there's a 59th second, and then the next second after that is the 0 second of the next minute. Minutes go from 0 to 59 and hours from 0 to 23. Weeks from 0 to 6, and months from 0 to 11.
And it's done!
I'm now on Chapter 35 Functions! My next session will be great. Once I get a grip on functions, I'll give Euler Problem 3 another shot! It would be great if I could solve it after I finish the next 4 chapters, all of which go over functions. The chapter noted that functions are typically stored in the same place as the main code, in an external JavaScript file, at the end of the HTML body section, or in the HTML head section. So happy today!
Well, I felt like doing some more work today so I finished Chapter 35 Functions already. The next chapter is Chapter 36 Functions Passing Them Data.
