+By the end, you should have also "followed" my Github page, AND set up a mathquiz repository.
+----
+==== Part 3 - Javascript ====
+**Deliverable** - JavaScript Math Quiz Program, playable on Github
+Setup your mathquiz repo on your desktop:
+[[http://lifehacker.com/5983680/how-the-heck-do-i-use-github|Please Read]] - How to setup your first repo
+Read Chapter 1 of the Cookbook Text
+  * You will be using a fancy text editor for this project.
+    * Download and Install Sublime Text 3 (beta) for Windows: http://www.sublimetext.com/3
+  * For your mathquiz
+    * Write a good Prime Number Multiple Choice problem (1 or more)
+    * Write a Combination/Permutation problem for every type (4)
+  * Check into Github project mathquiz (should have at least 6 questions total)

+Example: [[http://ffpaladin.github.io/mathquiz/]]
+----
+==== Design Challenge ====
+After you've finished everything, ask to see if anyone around you could use help.
+If people around you are doing fine, then continue with the challenge (do these in any order)...
+  - Design a better grading scheme for the quiz. For example, currently, there is no way of even knowing that I'm being scored unless I get all the answers correct. This is a terrible design choice. Make a better one.
+  - Design an experience that will teach the user the mathematical concepts of prime numbers and permutations/combinations
+  - Go into your Wordpress and, on your dashboard, customize your site [Appearance]
+  - Write a blog that summarizes your experience today and post screenshots
