Jotto Recap

The Jotto assignment does seem so long ago, but I think that's a testament to how much ground the course has covered since then.  
Look back at the Jotto assignment and think about how you would approach it now.  Think about all the things we have covered and how far you have progressed.

At the time I didn't really notice, but Jotto is written all in one sign Java class.  I think approaching it now, I would look to see if there would be ways that make sense to break functionality into their own different classes.

Highlight at least two victories.  It is very important to celebrate things that go right.  

This course has been my first introduction to working in Java and since Jotto I've felt I've become a lot more comfortable with Java in general, but specifically with object oriented concepts in Java; working across classes, extending via classes, conforming to an interface, how to structure your class.  I've also never worked with creating a UI before, so the introduction to Android Studio and creating an app with proper (okay, almost proper) UI is a great feeling.
