Today you learned a new language and will be starting to explore it more in depth in the coming weeks. Like any good craftsman, the first thing you need is to learn your tools. Tonight, you will be setting up your developer environment, creating a simple console application, and writing a short blog.
Objectives
Set up your dev machines
Create a simple console application to ensure your machine is set up correctly
Write a blog article to practice talking about technology
To verify everything was installed correctly, run dotnet -v in your terminal.
Ruby
You should already have Ruby installed.
Explorer Mode
Simple Console Application
[ ] Create a console application that guesses a number that a user has thought of ,between 1 and 100. This will use a binary search to guess the correct number
[ ] Here is the JavaScript, in browser, algorithm to follow. Make sure to understand this first before writing new code: https://codepen.io/ambethia/pen/KNewBb.
NOTE You will be translating this from the event driven paradigm of HTML to the more procedural paradigm of a console application.
[ ] For Explorer Mode, you do not have to put in menu or other user experience "nice to haves", focus on the just the core algorithm.
Wireframes
[ ] Finish working on your wireframes and ironing out your idea. Work with your instructors and peers to work out the kinks.
Adventure Mode
[ ] Create a nice user experience for the number guesser. Include features such as
