// 1: how could you rewrite the following to make it shorter?
if (foo) {
  bar.doSomething(el);
} else {
  bar.doSomethingElse(el);
}

bar[foo?'doSomething':'doSomethingElse'](el);



// 2: what is the faulty logic in the following code?
var foo = 'hello';

(function() {
  var foo = foo || 'world';
  console.log(foo);
})();

// foo is undefined in the iife scope
var foo = 'hello';
(function() {
  var bar = window.foo || 'world'; // window.foo or rename to bar
  console.log(bar);
})();

// 3: given the following code
var Thinger = function() {
  return this;
};
Thinger.prototype = {
  bar : 'baz'
};
var foo = new Thinger(),
    bim = new Thinger();

// how would you override the value of the bar
// property for the variable foo without affecting the value of the bar
// property for the variable bim? 
foo.bar = 'blurp';
// how would you affect the value of the bar property for both foo and bim? 
Thinger.prototype.bar = 'blurp';
// how would you add a method to foo and bim to console.log the value of each object's bar property? 
Thinger.prototype.log = function () {console.log(this.bar)}
// how would you tell if the object's bar property had been overridden for the particular object?
foo.bar === Thinger.prototype.bar;

// 4: given the following code, and assuming that each defined object has a
// 'destroy' method, how would you destroy all of the objects contained in the
// myObjects object?
var myObjects = {
  thinger : new myApp.Thinger(),
  gizmo : new myApp.Gizmo(),
  widget : new myApp.Widget()
};

Object.keys(myObject).forEach(function (k) {
  myObject[k].destroy();
});



// 5: given the following array, create an array that contains the contents of
// each array item repeated three times, with a space between each item. so,
// for example, if an array item is 'foo' then the new array should contain an
// array item 'foo foo foo'. (you can assume the library of your choice is
// available)
var myArray = [ 'foo', 'bar', 'baz' ];

myArray.forEach(function (el, i) {
  myArray[i] = [el,el,el].join(' ');
});


// 6: how could you improve the following code?
$(document).ready(function() {
  $('.foo #bar').css('color', 'red');
  $('.foo #bar').css('border', '1px solid blue');
  $('.foo #bar').text('new text!');
  $('.foo #bar').click(function() {
    $(this).attr('title', 'new title');
    $(this).width('100px');
  });
  
  $('.foo #bar').click();
});

  var $bar = $('#bar');
  $bar.css({
    'color': 'red',
    'border': '1px solid blue'
  });
  $bar.text('new text!')
  function onBarClick() {
    $bar.attr('title', 'new title');
    $bar.width('100px');
  };
  onBarClick();
  $bar.click(onBarClick);
});

// 7: what issues do you see with the following code? how would you fix it?
dojo.xhrGet({
  url : 'foo.php',
  load : function(resp) {
    var foo = resp.foo;
    if (foo) {
      // run this important code
    }
  }
});


// 8: how could you rewrite the following code to make it shorter?
(function(d, $){
  $('li.foo a').attr('title', 'i am foo');
  $('li.bar a').attr('title', 'i am bar');
  $('li.baz a').attr('title', 'i am baz');
  $('li.bop a').attr('title', 'i am bop');
})(dojo, dojo.query);


'foo bar baz bop'.split('').forEach(function (cl) {
  dojo.query('li.' + cl + ' a').attr('title', 'i am ' + cl);  
});


// 9: how would you improve the following code?
for (i = 0; i <= 100; i++) {
  $('#thinger').append('<p><span class="thinger">i am thinger ' + i + '</span></p>');
  $('#gizmo').append('<p><span class="gizmo">i am gizmo ' + i + '</span></p>');

var thingerHtml = [];
var gizmoHtml = [];
for (i = 0; i <= 100; i++) {
  thingerHtml.push('<p><span class="thinger">i am thinger ' + i + '</span></p>');

}

$('#thinger').append(thingerHtml);
$('#gizmo').append(gizmoHtml);

// 10: a user enters their desired tip into a text box; the baseTotal, tax,
// and fee values are provided by the application. what are some potential
// issues with the following function for calculating the total?

  return baseTotal + tip + tax + fee;
}


function calculateTotal(baseTotal, tip, tax, fee) {
  tip = parseFloat(tip, 10);
  if (isNaN(tip)) alert('please enter valid tip');
  return baseTotal + tip + tax + fee;
}


// 11: given the following data structure, write code that returns an array 
// containing the name of each item, followed by a comma-separated list of
// the item's extras, if it has any. e.g. 
//
//    [ "Salad (Chicken, Steak, Shrimp)", ... ]
//
// (you can assume the library of your choice is available)
var menuItems = [
  {
    id : 1,
    name : 'Salad',
    extras : [

    name : 'Potato',
    extras : [
      'Bacon', 'Sour Cream', 'Shrimp'
    ]
  },

    name : 'Bread'
  }

// BONUS: write code such that the following alerts "Hello World"
say('Hello')('World');

function say(h){
  return function (w)  {
    alert(h + ' ' + w);
  };
}

var date = new Date(),

for (var i = 0; i <= 5; i++) {
  dates.push(month + '/' + (day + i));
}

console.log('The next five days are ', dates.join(', '));

// date can't be invalid (i.e., function running on 12/30 will produce 12/35)

var date = new Date(),
    day = date.getDate(),
    month = date.getMonth(),
    dates = [],
    d, addDays = function (start, i) {}; // so best answer
    
for (var i = 0; i <= 5; i++) {
  d = addDays(day, i);
  dates.push(d.getMonth() + '/' + d.getDay();
