Hi Sherin, how about this Thursday (Dec 15) at 14:00 UTC?

Also, could you take your code down from those public repos? We try to keep solutions private for awhile, even after the admissions are closed. Thanks! I have a copy of the zip file you submitted.

[ghost]

Yes, this Thursday is good.

Public repositories have been removed.

[ericgj]

OK, great. We can meet on #rmu-study-hall-2 channel on freenode on Thursday.

@csherin: my mistake - it's ok to release your solutions publicly after admissions closes. sorry for the hassle. I do have your zip file too, but if you want to release them publicly you can.

I pushed them to github for your benefit anyways. No problem :-)

@csherin , great to chat with you today. I forgot to record the session, but I've pasted the transcript here.

Thinking about it some more, that board.neighbors_at doesn't quite work, you'd need to pass in either the piece or the square coordinates... in which case, it starts to point to the need for a Square object that maybe could mediate between the pieces and the board. So then you could have the pieces call square.neighbors_at and not deal with the board directly. Anyway... another idea.

PS, to help improve the mentoring sessions, I'd really appreciate if you could fill out this survey.

@ericgj Filled out the survey. Thank you for the ideas and feedback.
