Welcome to The Knowledge House 2021 Innovation Fellowship Pre-work for the Web Development track! The following prework is meant to assess your ability to learn new concepts quickly and apply them to problems you may not have seen before. Assignment 1: Make your computer shout you out! Now write a script where you initialize a javascript variable that can NOT be changed This solution and all other solution files should be saved in the pre-work directory you will create: assignment_1.js Assignment 2: Make your computer shout you out! //Programming a computer seems complicated but in reality, it is just learning the commands //your computer understands so you can make it do what you want it to do. The material does this //to is data, that can be numbers, strings (sets of characters enclosed in “”), or a boolean which //represents true and false, 0 or 1. //In order for your computer to show text on a screen you must tell it what you want it to say with a //console.log statement //Ex1: console.log(“Hello World”) //Output would be: Hello World // you can also capture strings and number and save them under names called variables: var greeting = “Hello World” console.log(greeting) //Output would be: Hello World //Ex 2 //You can also take words user’s input (or from other sources) and sub them into your string //in the below example we have a variable that will save a users input for their favorite food: fav_food = prompt(“What is your favorite food?”) console.log( “My favorite food is ” + fav_food) //

OUTPUT: //”What is your favorite food?: Burgers” //My favorite food is Burgers Now write a script where your computer asks you for your name and then shouts you out This solution should be saved in the pre-work directory you created earlier in the file: assignment_2.js ASSIGNMENT 3 Simple Math: Initialize two variables containing integers, multiply them, saving the result to a third variable. Once done print the variable to the screen. This solution should be saved in the pre-work directory you created earlier in the file: assignment_3.js ASSIGNMENT 4 Math and evaluation //Programming uses numbers, but thankfully you don’t need to be a math genius to program. //Programming can be used to evaluate mathematical statements, you can also compare numbers to each-other //Ex1: 4+4 //Output: 8 //Ex2: 17<3 //OUTPUT: False //We can also place a condition on the result of such a test: //Ex2 var example = 7; if (example > 8){ print “over” }; else{ print “under” }; //OUTPUT: under //You can do this to compare numbers to each-other //Lastly we have arrays and loops, a array is just a collection of strings, numbers, or other pieces of data var nums = [1,14,32,5,7] console.log(nums.length;) //output is 5 //here we have a array of numbers we can write a for loop to array them out for us, //Here we are setting the variable i to act as a placeholder for the item in the array we are printing //i++ shows that after each run of the loop i is increased by 1, until i is greater than the length of the //array for(var i=0; i
