Hi, When you make the addMany function, why don't you set i and sum to 0, since arrays in JS have a 0 based index aren't you cheating by making the sum = to the first number you chose to add in the function (the number at the [0] index?)?

thanks,

[derekbanas]

@phazedplasma Yes I did cheat there. That's funny. I think you guys think I have this code all done ahead of time. I normally work from very few notes and improv my way through the programming. I'd love to show myself making a video. You'd probably be shocked at the small amount of prep work that goes into these videos. The editing is what takes forever :)

[phazedplasma]

@derekbanas no worries man, just had everyone i was watching it with scratching our heads. Love the videos.

[derekbanas]

@phazedplasma Everyone you were watching it with? Are people really coming together to watch my videos? That is extremely funny to me. I have no idea how people view these videos

[phazedplasma]

@derekbanas haha yeah, Wednesday's at work some of us grab a conference room and watch 1-2 of them depending on the length.

[derekbanas]

@phazedplasma That is so funny :) When I first started making these I had no subscribers for over 5 months. I just did it for the heck of it. That's great that you like them. You guys must think I'm the king of all nerds. That's cool

Thanks a lot for these- great succinct flow to them - telling us what we need to know.

@wew2005 It's not so much memorization it's more about creating a massive library of functions that you have access to. I've tried to make some for you. The most important thing is to learn how to read code. When you see something you don't understand plug it into the net and learn what it means. It's not so much about creativity but more about just never giving up on solving a problem. You'll eventually find the answer every time

[wew2005]

From what I've gathered by watching this and a few more of your introductory videos, it seems that even if you comprehend the principles behind the language, it is going to take a ton of memorization and practice to learn how to sit down and write some code without referencing anything for help... Is that pretty accurate?

@gps6167 It is definitely a dense tutorial. I never saw anyone teach in this way, so I thought I'd give it a shot. I'm constantly experimenting with new ways to teach. I'm glad you found it useful :D
