Assignment

Why should I even do this assignment?

Understanding the basics of Javascript is SUPER important. Therefore this assignment focuses on repeating the basics to really have a solid understanding of this.

If you struggle to do this weeks assignment, go through the last 3 weeks readme files: Week 1: Variables, Week 2: Logical Operators, Week 3: Objects.

Voice assistant

You will be building a voice assistant 🤖! Is that even possible in javascript, YES! EVERYTHING is possible in javascript 💪 (nearly)

Create a function called getReply(command). The function should return a response that corresponds to the command!

These are the commands you should be able to give the voice assistant:

  • Hello my name is Benjamin - Should save the name benjamin. and respond with "nice to meet you Benjamin". What if someone writes this twice?

  • What is my name - should respond with the name of the person. What if the name has not yet been mentioned?

  • Add fishing to my todo - Should respond with "fishing added to your todo". Should add fishing to a list of todos

  • Add singing in the shower to my todo - Should add singing in the shower to a list of todos

  • Remove fishing from my todo - Should respond with "Removed fishing from your todo"

  • What is on my todo? - should respond with the todos. e.g. you have 2 todos - fishing and singing in the shower

  • What day is it today? - Should respond with the date in a human readable format. E.g. if today is 30/8/2019 then it should respond with 30. of August 2019

  • Should be able to do simple math. e.g. what is 3 + 3 should respond with 6. Or what is 4 * 12 should respond with 48

  • Set a timer for 4 minutes - Should respond with "Timer set for 4 minutes". When 4 minutes is up: "Timer done". How do we set a timer in js? Google is your friend here!

  • Add one or more command to your voice assistant

Here is an example of usage:

console.log(getReply("Hello my name is Benjamin")); // "Nice to meet you benjamin"
console.log(getReply("What is my name?")); // "Your name is Benjamin"
console.log(getReply("Add fishing to my todo")); // "fishing added to your todo"

When you are done, add your getReply function and global variables to this CodeSandbox and try the voice command out with both commands and speech!
