basecamp-assessment-ii's Issues

Potential wonky test with Problem #8

For problem #8.

	it("should return correct values", function () {
		expect(evensOnly()).toEqual([4, 34, 88, 222]);
	});

Had a student try to create the evensOnly function passing in myNumbers as a parameter and doing a map over the array causing it to throw an undefined array error even though their code was correct.

Would recommend changing the test or wording the directions better. Could also write a shell function for them to avoid confusion.

function evensOnly() {
     // CODE HERE
}

Wording on question #10

// #10 create a function called indexFinder and loop over the randomNumbers array below and return a new array called 'indexes' with just their indexes. Be sure to invoke indexFinder.

The phrase "...and return a new array called 'indexes'..." is not inline with the test. The test is asking for a global variable called "indexes" and the question sounds like it wants you to return an array called "indexes" in the function's return statement.

Could avoid some confusion by changing the wording to "...and return into a new array called 'indexes'...". Or by writing the test to match the question wording.
