Solar System

Congratulations! You're submitting your assignment.

Comprehension Questions

Question	Answer
What was the purpose of the initialize method in your class?	To create an instance of the class
Describe an instance variable you used and what you used it for.	They are supposed to be variables that can be accessed outside of the class and methods they were created in. Like, giving a planet a color instance variable in the Planet class and then using that variable in a method in the Solar System class.
Describe what the difference would be if your SolarSystem used an Array vs a Hash.	One advantage of using a hash over an array is that you can access information like :color using the key instead of knowing which index the color information is stored in the array.
Do you feel like you used consistent indentation throughout your code?	I tried!

Uhoh! Did I just mess up submitting this? I hope not!

This assignment was super hard for me and i feel like I am missing a crucial part. After a ton of hours and three re-writes, I can not get the information to print. I had it all working in arrays and then switching to hashes got me really confused. How do I access the values in a hash in planet from the solar system class?? i am going nuts over here! Looking forward to open tutoring!

What We're Looking For

I'll preface this feedback with the fact that we know we talked a bit about your code after you submitted it!

Feature	Feedback
Created Custom Class with initialize method & instance variables.	Yes. The instance variables on the Planet class are not appropriate. The planet_hash will always be nil the way it is currently implemented.
Used an Array to store a list of planets in the SolarSystem class.	Yes. add_planet and add_planets methods are implemented appropriately.
Readable code with consistent indentation.	Yes, code formatting looks good
Created a pull request with your name & a meaningful message.	Almost! I'd like you to try again on the comprehension questions sometime this week. I think you are missing a few of the points we are looking for in there. We can also review together if you'd prefer.
