Prerequisite: Fundamentals of JavaScript

Note: Most of these items should be done already! Read the bottom of the doc to continue 😄

Welcome to Bit Camp, where students get hands-on experience with software engineering. Before the program starts, please find some time to complete the following assignment: learn/review JavaScript fundamentals that will later be used in the program. To complete this assignment, you will be creating a digital clock using JavaScript to demonstrate your skills! If you need any help, refer to these resources:

• W3Schools: https://www.w3schools.com/js/default.asp
• Tutorialspoint: https://www.tutorialspoint.com/javascript/javascript_overview.htm
• Modern JS: https://javascript.info/

If you have specific questions, try out Stack Overflow (it is super duper helpful):

After you have learned/refreshed your knowledge of JavaScript, let's get started on making that clock. Here is the list of the requirements and some extensions you can complete if you have extra time!

Requirements:

• Display 12/24 HR time with hours, minutes, and seconds.
• Must be created using JavaScript (plus appropriate HTML and CSS for formatting and styling)

Extensions:

• Turn your clock from digital to analog mode (hint: you're gonna need a lot of CSS for this...)
• Use CSS to style your clock (i.e. make it blue, green, yellow, etc)
• Create animations for your clock (ie. when the minute hand changes, it rotates/spins)

Don't know where to get started? Start off by creating a new function that starts your clock:

function startTime() {}

After this, you will need to create three variables:

var hr = " ";
var min = " ";
var sec = " ";

Also, make sure to reference the HTML you created the "clock" id in:

document.getElementById("clock").innerHTML = " ";

Good job, hopefully your digital clock is fully working and your jQuery is linked to our HTML and CSS files. Your next task is a bit more tricky... you're making another clock but this time... in analog mode!

Don't know where to put your code? Try using this online interpreter: repl.it!

If you have any other questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out to your TAs! Your last step is to create a Github account if you don't have one yet, create a repository to store your project, and upload your files. We will cover Github in this course, so if you don't know how to use it, no worries! Give it your best try for now.
