Inspiration
As all four of us enjoy math, so we decided to make a math based program. Middle school math is very speed based, so we decided that our program should be based on answering problems quickly and accurately. Because most of us have been in our Middle School competitive math program, we decided that it would be useful to have a study tool to test a participants speed.
What it does
The user can choose between doing answering as many problems as they can in one, two, or five minutes. After the time is up, the user will see a report on how many they got right, wrong, and what percentage they got right.
How I built it
We used HTML to code the UI and used JS to code the game logic.
Challenges I ran into
Getting buttons to work Getting test to center Repl.it not working correctly Creating a functioning backspace key Randomly obtaining a problem out of a group
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
We are proud of finishing our project since we weren't able to complete our project in time in the last Hackathon.
What I learned
I learned to work as a team to do projects. We first cut the project into different sections: 2 people did the UI and 2 people did the game logic. Splitting up the work allowed us to get a lot more done quickly, and afterwards we debriefed to each other about what we each did individually.
What's next for Minute Math
Hour math!... not jk lol. The next goal is to keep track of all the top scores around the world.
