  1. Hey Larry!

    I've been working on my assignment and I've hit a roadblock. I was hoping you can take a look for me. I'm able to get the output out, however there are a few kinks i'm running into. I'm trying to sum up my output temperature numbers. Also the dates are suppose to go down 1 day from today each time you submit.

    Thanks Larry!

  2. Thanks Larry! I did make some changes! I got it to mostly work. It looks like the addition for all 3 tax rates aren't adding up properly. Can you take a look? 

    Much appreciated!

  3. Thanks for taking a look! I'm relatively new. I understand the basic basic concepts of JavaScript after reading the chapters. It's just hard to merge it all together for this calculator.

  4. Hey Larry!

    I've been working on an assignment for my class that follows chapter 4. I've posted the link towards the bottom. Essentially, it asks to combine many of the elements from chapter 4, such as formatting names and math calculators into a single calculator. I'm able to follow your examples but once I add in another element into the calculator and try to combine it, the calculator no longer works. Do you have any examples that are similar to my assignment or do you have any suggestions?
