Comprehension Questions

Feature	Feedback
What are the components that make up a method?	Method signature, block, arguments and parameters.
What are the advantages of using git when collaboratively working on one code base?	Collaborators can work simultaneously on the code. There is no need to keep emailing each other the file for the other person to update/modify the code. Save time and redundancy.
What kind of relationship did you and your pair have with the unit tests?	Uneven power dynamic with the unit tests. We had to pass the tests, there were no other viable alternatives.
Does your code use any methods from the Enumerable mixin? If so, where and why was it helpful?	Used .map identify letters in user's word and upcase the words. This is helpful because it returns an array of letters that we can match to the drawn hand. We used .include? to check if letters are included in the array being referenced in order to get the points assigned to each letter for the total sum of points the word would earn.
What was one method you and your pair used to debug code?	We used pry/binding pry to step through loops and find where the code broke down for unexpected outputs.
What are two discussion points that you and your pair discussed when giving/receiving feedback from each other that you would be willing to share?	Sustain: We did well communicating with each other, such as asking for explanation for blocks of code when one person needs clarification. Improve: We need to improve our git commit messages. Be more specific on what changes occurred and what portion of the project was worked on (i.e. Wave 1, 2, etc.).

Good job! Great variable names!

I'd be interested to talk with y'all about the uneven power dynamic you felt with the tests. It sounds like working with the tests wasn't a very positive experience for y'all, which makes me sad 😔

Looks really good y'all!
