TDD LCD Kata - Part 4
Let's get to MULTI-DIGIT ... dig...its... Yeah! 0-9 are done - MULTI DIGIT TIME! Let's go to 10! I've gone into the multi-digits with an idea, and ... it's the wrong idea. This is my favorite video of the entire set for this…

Live Coding - TDD FizzBuzz Part 4
First two requirements complete. Time to start the 3rd! Write tests, not just to drive the code; but for safety in the future! Don't modify existing behavior when making a test pass. I really like the Elvis Operator [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elvis_operator] "I know…
