The language has evolved over time with it being used by various web browsers. Why should I Study JavaScript? You should study JavaScript because it is among the three fundamental languages every web developer must learn and understand. With HTML, you can define your web page contents whereas CSS allows you to identify your web page layout; however, with JavaScript, you can program the actions of these web pages. JavaScript has changed the way things are done. Initially, after filling a form, one had to submit it to the server so that it could be checked for any anomalies. If anomalies were found, the server would return the form to the user in order to correct the details. With JavaScript, validation is done before the form can be submitted to the server. The user is able to know any errors done while filling the form and correct them accordingly. This has made things easy for users.This guide covers the following topics: Use of a global variable as a cache The basics of javascript function and scope Loop constructs An introduction to es6 Form Iframe and multimedia The document object model Clauses Operators, data types and other priorities Document object model (dom) Events (not the kind you celebrate) A storing information in variables Javascript essentials Regular expressions Basic data types of variables The window object Maps and sets...

?A book that both taught me so much and also kept me on the edge of my seat. It is an invaluable text from a supremely talented writer.? ?Clint Smith, author of How the Word is PassedThe definitive history of the pervasiveness of racial inequality in American higher educationAmerica's colleges and universities have a shameful secret: they have never given Black people a fair chance to succeed. From its inception, our higher education system was not built on equality or accessibility, but on educating?and prioritizing?white students. Black students have always been an afterthought. While governments and private donors funnel money into majority white schools, historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs), and other institutions that have high enrollments of Black students, are struggling to survive, with state legislatures siphoning away federal funds that are legally owed to these schools. In The State Must Provide, Adam Harris reckons with the history of a higher education system that has systematically excluded Black people from its benefits.Harris weaves through the legal, social, and political obstacles erected to block equitable education in the United States, studying the Black Americans who fought their way to an education, pivotal Supreme Court cases like Plessy v. Ferguson and Brown v. Board of Education, and the government's role in creating and upholding a segregated education system. He explores the role that Civil War?era legislation intended to bring agricultural education to the masses had in creating the HBCUs that have played such a major part in educating Black students when other state and private institutions refused to accept them.The State Must Provide is the definitive chronicle of higher education's failed attempts at equality and the long road still in front of us to remedy centuries of racial discrimination?and poses a daring solution to help solve the underfunding of HBCUs. Told through a vivid cast of characters, The State Must Provide examines what happened before and after schools were supposedly integrated in the twentieth century, and why higher education remains broken to this day.

Life is about journeys and paths and those that you choose. As the years go by the ones to choose become less obvious, I try to challenge myself and those around me through the kaleidoscope of life.Assumptions that we create both of ourselves and others limit our chances to grow and flourish and the internal mental models of our mind restrict us from blossoming. We have to trust and let go, I try to surrender...... it''s a test that I take every day.
