I'm writing a small JavaScript program to implement the simple game of "Concentrate". A few weeks ago, I borrowed JavaScript: The Good Parts, by Douglas Crockford. It's a terrific little book on what's good about JavaScript. I admit freely that my JavaScript programming skills are mostly at the "cut and paste" level, but writing a small game will force me to get beyond this level, and to penetrate some of the patterns in Crockford's book. I'm hopeful to be blogging about this soon!
