(x2)
The app works but it is very
short. Improvements are
obvious but not
implemented. The app has a
very basic programming that
does not show knowledge of
the control structures. The
variables are not initialized.
There is not a lot of different
programming elements.
The app has some minor
bugs but works ok for the
most part. The app shows
some understanding of
programming control
structures, but can be
optimized by making better
use of them. There
initialization of variables, is
part of a known state.
Works perfectly, has several
attractive and well designed
details. All instructions and
commands have been
optimized and there is no
unnecessary repetition. Most
control instructions are
displayed. Flags and
messages have been
properly used.
All of the above plus shows
animations in between
screens, or has embedded
mini-apps. The app features
programming variety and
several management tools,
beyond what was worked
during the initial
programming challenges.
