These weekend exercises are designed to help you level up in various areas, particularly algorithms and Object Oriented Programming. We strongly encourage you to complete these exercises over the weekend. We've tried to keep them brief but powerful. On Sunday, we'll review the solutions to the exercises from that week.
These problems are designed to help you practice becoming a fluent programmer. They are short and sweet, much like the types of questions you will be asked in a job interview.
You shouldn't be very concerned with getting the "right" answer as fast as possible. Rather, you should focus on improving with each problem. If it takes you a while to remember the syntax for writing a method or looping through a list, keep practicing and focusing on those skills. With enough practice, it will become second nature.
Object Oriented Programming is one of the most fundamental skills as a programmer, and you'll want to get really good at it. These exercises will help you get there.
You have a choice this week. You must do the yodel challenge. You can choose to do the trees challenge or the batman_vs_superman challenge. Trees is going to be easy, the superhero challenge is going to push you a little more.
You have the tools to do both, but don't push yourself if you are uncomfortable with the harder exercise.
Each problem has driver code at the bottom so you can test your solution by running the code in Sublime (Command + B). Alternatively, you can run each file from the terminal as well.
