For these questions, write a short description or snippet of code that meets the requirement. In cases where the question mentions a “given” data value, use the variable given to refer to it (instead of re-writing the information).

Give one difference between Modules and Classes. Classes create an object - Modules only modify objects
Defining Modules

First, create a module Doughy which defines a method has_carbs? that always returns true. Then, given the following Pizza class, update Pizza to use your new Doughy module to gain the defined has_carbs? behavior. module Doughy def has_carbs?

similar... there's the movement to push us forward and get out of the entrenched white(&asian) male dominated software engineering field.

what role do you play in creating a more inclusive environment in your cohort and larger community at turing.

	#Week 2 and 3 Diagnostic

	For these questions, write a short snippet of code that meets the requirement. In cases where the question mentions a “given” data value, use the variable given to refer to it (instead of re-writing the information).
	Use single (`) and triple backticks (```) to container code snippets.

	```class PizzaOven
	def cook_pizza

	Guiding Questions to Define The Relationship:
	What are your learning goals for this project?
	Further explore the use of enumerables to accomplish the demands of the project.

	What is your collaboration style? How do you feel about pair programming vs. divide-and-conquer approaches?
	Given we feel confident in our respective abilities to get after it individually we've divided the tasks up into the writer and the reader. Divide and conquer it is.

	How do you communicate best? How do you appreciate receiving communication from others?
	Clear and open. Just stream of conciousness thoughts flowing back and forth. Danny's got a leg up on Mark with regard to overall ruby proficiency but Mark's been thru this Mod before and knows the nuance of navigating this type of project.
	How would you describe your work style?

	Lauterbrunnen Valley
	Switzerland
	Europe
	Dramatic vertical walls and sheer relief. Glaciers spilling off of walls, lush meadows, amazing views.
	Mountains

	reflected on time spen doing swapping pairs during bike-share with team members and our interactions there and in a group of 4 (very positive BTW)

	* How did the conversation go for you? What was easy about the conversation? What was more difficult?
	Nearly 100% positive. The only hesitant was recieving completely fair feedback but initially receiving it as more of a harsh critique than an objective one. All good in the end

	What does it mean to precompile files? What does this have to do with coffeescript and sass files?
