Higher order functions in JavaScript

Open webb04 opened this issue 8 years ago • 1 comments

Recently a student (learning a programming language for the first time) had some trouble grasping the sortNumbersAscending example in lesson 2 of learning JavaScript https://github.com/codebar/tutorials/blob/gh-pages/js/lesson2/tutorial.md.

This seemed like a steep step up compared to the rest of the content (which the student understood and enjoyed going through).

I just wondered if lesson 2 was a bit early to introduce passing functions as arguments? or if this could be expanded on or simplified in this section?

Hey Jamie :)

Thanks for the suggestion. I've no idea either way really - I'd welcome more feedback from other coaches on this issue, and it might also be worthwhile having a look at some other tutorials, like codecademy, to see how they handle it.

If other coaches feel the same way, would you be willing to make a PR?
