Resistors have color coded bands, where each color maps to a number. The first 2 bands of a resistor have a simple encoding scheme: each color maps to a single number.
These colors are encoded as follows:
- Black: 0
- Brown: 1
- Red: 2
- Orange: 3
- Yellow: 4
- Green: 5
- Blue: 6
- Violet: 7
- Grey: 8
- White: 9
Mnemonics map the colors to the numbers, that, when stored as an array, happen to map to their index in the array: Better Be Right Or Your Great Big Values Go Wrong.
More information on the color encoding of resistors can be found in the Electronic color code Wikipedia article
Go through the setup instructions for Javascript to install the necessary dependencies:
https://exercism.io/tracks/javascript/installation
Install assignment dependencies:
$ npm installExecute the tests with:
$ npm testIn the test suites all tests but the first have been skipped.
Once you get a test passing, you can enable the next one by changing xtest to
test.
