Feedback

Reflect on the evaluation that someone else did for your code. Briefly describe where you did well and where you could improve. Do you agree with their assessment? Why or why not?
One of the main things they mention I need work on is comments, which I agree with them. I agree because sometimes when I go back to back to old code I am confused on where things are and what certain code does. 

multiple variables

Have you made a mistake where you've declared too many or too few variables? What was the problem, and how did you fix it? When you begin writing a program, how do you know how many variables you'll need? 
I forgot which program it was but I had two same variables and one of the variables was writing over the second one. I fixed it by deleting the variable that was writing over the other. 

When you programmed the Princess Quiz, you needed several variables, one for each princess's score. For other programs, like the choose your own adventure program or the Marvel Universe Guesser, you only need one or two. What's the difference? What's a good rule of thumb for when you have to have a handful of variables versus when you only need one?
A good rule of thumb is named each variable with clear content. If one variable is the player then name the variable player.

flowcharts

1) What are flowcharts and how are they useful?
Flow charts are like an outline to a story or an event. It can help be useful by being more organized.
2) What coding tools/concepts will you need to complete this project?

I need to use the shapes key to correctly demonstrate an event or a story.
