JavaScript Basic: For Loop Study Note

For loop is another way of repeating code.

for( initial; condition; step) {
//run some code
}

As you see, for loop includes three part:

The first part is the initialize where we declare a variable and set it to some initial value.
The second part is condition which is when this loop should keep running.
The last part is step, so what do we do at the end of every iteration.

I would like to share two examples from the course:

Print numbers from 0 to 5 with a for loop

I write the for loop in the console. There are three part in the for loop:

1. Initial: count start from 0 (count = 0)

2. Condition: run the code until the count is less than 6 ( count < 6)

3. Step: count incrementally

The result list 0 to 5.

Print each character in a string with a for loop

1. Initial: list the character from the beginning (start 0)

2. Condition: run the code until it end by the string length

3. Step: list all the characters in order

The result list each character for "hello"

Intermediate Express.js: How To Add Styles & Partials in EJS File?

So far, we only have simple HTML tags and ejs tags in each ejs file. Every template page has no style at all. And the basic HTML header and footer are also missing. Today, I learned how to add styles and partials in ejs file. Link Style Step One: Touch a Separate CSS file I create a new directory "Style" under the "EJSDemo" directory, then I add a new CSS file "app.css" inside "Style" folder. Step Two: Add app.use(express.static()) in the app.js I add app.use(express.static("style")) in the "app.js". This will tell Express.js to serve the content of "Style" directory.

Seven Most Common jQuery Methods Last Part: ADD/REMOVE/TOGGLE CLASS()

Add, remove and toggleClass is also a very common way to manipulate style. .addClass() and .removeClass() I add two class selector in the style tag. Class one is to change text color to be green, and class two is change both text and background color. Now I refresh the page and change h1 text to green by using addClass() method: $("h1").addClass("one") . If you want to remove the style, you can change it to removeClass("one"). I do the same thing to the list. I change the list color and add a background color by adding the class two style value: $("li").addClass("two") . .toggleClass() According to jQuery, toggerClass method can add or remove one or more classes from each element in the set of matched elements, depending on either the class's presence or the value of the state argument. I only want to change the first list item color and background by writing: $("li").first().toggleClas...

Intro to Backend: Is Browser The Only Place To Send HTTP Request?

Today, I begin to learn the second part of web develop course: backend. Frontend is the stuff that we can see and interactive with, such as HTML, CSS, and JS. We can type our code, style our page, or write some function to make interaction. However, backend is everything else. For example, we type Target web address in the Internet Browser. As we hit "enter", there are a few steps to go through: 1. The HTTP request is sent to a particular server's IP address. 2. The server figures out what to send us 3. It sends a HTTP response back to us Those process we are hard to see, and it happens in less than one second. The instructor said that the browser is not the only place to send the HTTP request, and there are so many choices out there. In this learning course, we are going to use Postman App . Postman allows us to make HTTP requests and viewer responses. It is really for developers to understand how things are working or debug something. In the P...
