Reading Assignment - Libraries

  1. Why do we need libraries?
  2. With libraries our coding life gets much more easier as we can now reuse code functions which was already written by someone else. We don't have to reinvent thinks again when using libraries.

So that we don’t re-write the “wheel” every time we need basic code functionality.

Why do We need libraries?
A: Libraries are needed because they act as a good resource to save time by saving you from creating codes that have already been created and reused by other programmer which in turn create reliability in the libraries.

  1. We need libraries, because, it saves time, & allows us to more with less. We reuse & build upon code that’s already there.

Writing a program to fulfill some kind of function can take a very long time because we must outline every instruction that needs to be executed. This can be really tedious especially if our program includes common functions such as a comment section on a website or a drop down menu. Some of these problems have been solved before, and many computer programmers share these solutions to the world. In javascript we can exploit this by using libraries which are essentially a collection of those functions that someone else has put together.

  1. Why do we need libraries?
    To re-use existing code so that we don’t waste our time writing code that another programmer has already written.

    -Theres no need to waste time creating code for a function(s) that someone has already successfully created to use for the world. Libraries are lists of functions that help you accomplish useful tasks for your webpage while saving you time.
  1. There is no need to rewrite a function that does what we want if it has already been written and made public as a javascript library with a documentation on how to use it. We use them to save time.

Libraries increase a developer’s productivity by having reusable code, or code snippets, that we can readily use.

It saves time and effort, it is more officiant, it is more reliable.

Why do we need libraries?

To prevent we spend time in coding stuff there already is.

Why do we need libraries?

To save time, be more effiecient, it nonsense to build everything from scratch when there is already good solution for it.

We need libraries to re-use other programmers code, that they’ve build and tested, instead of writing the same logic over again

Libraries allow us to win time, avoid repeating the same mistakes done by other before us.
It is a great way of building on top of existing knowledge and trial n error of developers before us.

  1. Libraries allow us as programmers to re-use existing code that offers some useful functionality so we don’t waste valuable time creating code that already exists.

We can use libraries to reuse a function/code, if we have a similar task. This safes time, money and avoid mistakes.

1 Why do we need libraries?
Libraries are important because it can save developers time from constructing functional code that may already be accessible to use in a program freeing up time to actually work on our application.

  1. I think the most important reason to use libraries is to SAVE time, as we all know by now coding can be time consuming and libraries are a place to go a find code that has been reused plenty of times.
