Many of my solutions worked, but I often solved problems using longer loops and multiple conditions before realizing that JavaScript already had methods that could express the same logic more clearly.</p> <p>Two methods that stood out to me were:</p> <ul> <li><code>.some()</code></li> <li><code>.sort()</code></li> </ul> <p>Learning these methods showed me that improving as a programmer is not only about getting the correct answer. It is also about learning how to make code shorter, clearer, and easier to understand.</p>
