MIS 2402 PRO Points project (Covid-19 Stats)

  1. The end goal for this particular project is to use Jquery, loops, conditional statement and functions to retrieve appropriate information from a JSON objects on a given URL (misdemo) and display them. After doing this project, I feel more confident that I can apply what I have learned to actual codes. Specifically, I adjusted a conditional statement in the codes that eliminates the null values that are associated with the numerators of fractions that calculate the recovery rate of Covid-19 cases in different countries. In the same manner, I also eliminate the arrays that have names of continents as names of countries, and the results with the total number of cases, so that I can display the results of countries with most cases, most deaths and most new cases correctly without having confusing results. Last but not least, I used bootstraps to add CSS classes to the information retrieved from the JSON arrays to set the tone for the information displayed (for example, high recovery rate is green and low recovery rate is red).All in all, this project has effectively increase my confidence and harden my JavaScript skills.
