This WOD is labeled as Invoice1, and here is the link to the WOD page with the instructions. This WOD required us to create a sales receipt to print the subtotal calculations of five objects to represent items on an invoice. Finally, we had to create an HTML table to display the javascript that we created earlier to appear as numbers in the table
My experience in performing the WOD was a bit difficult but manageable, I RTFM a lot. What worked well was that everything that we coded in javascript had single-line comments that helped keep everything well organized. Something that I found difficult on was remembering to use the ${} syntax and placing “.toFixed(2)” to only reflect two decimal places for the price amounts and tax.
To prepare for this WOD, I RTFM. Then I attempted the WOD one time, just trying to do as much as possible based on what I knew without worrying about my time. When I got stuck I would watch the screencast. I reviewed what I had done for the second attempt and made sure I understood any mistakes from my first attempt. Finally, I made my 3rd and final attempt, which is the one that I recorded. There was nothing that I did differently from the WOD before this to prepare for this WOD as it was pretty similar to the other WODS in terms of the process.
To prepare better for the next WOD, I should be more confident and familiar with the syntax before starting. Furthermore, getting more practice with coding will help me remember all the different tags in HTML. Also, next time, I want to be even faster and more efficient by possibly cutting out the third attempt. After the first attempt and watching the screencast, I want to complete the WOD in one more go simply by looking at the directions more carefully.
