Some of the examples in some days' slides are from David Fisher at Rose-Hulman, who was kind enough to allow me to use them. My intention is to mark these examples with [DSF].

JSLint

• JSLint: an analyzer that checks your JS code, much like a compiler, and points out common errors
  • Web Step By Step version (recommended)
  • original version, by Douglas Crockford of Yahoo!
• when your JS code doesn't work, paste it into JSLint first to find many common problems
