SOLID

In computer programming, SOLID (Single responsibility, Open-closed, Liskov substitution, Interface segregation and Dependency inversion) is a mnemonic acronym introduced by Michael Feathers for the "first five principles" named by Robert C. Martin in the early 2000sthat stands for five basic principles of object-oriented programming and design. The principles, when applied together, intend to make it more likely that a programmer will create a system that is easy to maintain and extend over time. The principles of SOLID are guidelines that can be applied while working on software to remove code smells by causing the programmer to refactor the software's source code until it is both legible and extensible. It is part of an overall strategy of agile and adaptive programming.

Retrospectives are used to improve continuously

The 12th agile principle states:

At regular intervals, the team reflects on how to become more effective, then tunes and adjusts its behavior accordingly.

Every retrospective meeting starts by looking at the actions from the previous meeting, to see if they are finished (and to take action if not).

Convert this string

string = "{key:[[value_1, value_2],[value_3, value4]], 5:10:00AM]}"

to this hash:

h = {"key" => [["value_1", "value_2"],["value_3", "value4"]], 5=>"10:00AM"}

then convert h to JSON.

Please note that the brackets are unbalanced on purpose.
