Front End Web Development Techdegree Student 13,732 PointsHey Andrew Teece , if it's one thing I've learned about coding, it's very detail oriented. One misspelling or left out syntax will mess everything up smh lol

Keep in mind that with coding, you have to get use to being told no by the machine. If it doesn't work, than there is something wrong with the code, or you are missing something. The machine is very seldom wrong.
