I love the videos by Hampton, however, I feel this video wasn't clear on exactly what he was doing so that I can apply it to future functions.

If you are coming from a design background I suggest you do the introduction to programming course to get a better understanding of how to use variables, conditionals and functions. Another thing that might help is looking at the unsemantic sass documentaion, it's much more comprehensive than the sass-lang documentation and deals with real world applications of most of sass features.
Hope this helps.

8,603 PointsAwesome tip! Thank you! Yes, I come from a design background so taking the intro to programming will be beneficial. I've been doing great in each lesson, however the functions were a bit confusing without a general programming background. It may also be a great idea for them to include it on the web design track (which I'm on).
Thanks again!

Good luck.
