EXTRA CREDIT/ADDITIONAL TASKS TO EXPLORE
- ToDo List file reading
- User interface improvement (explore javafx classes and methods)
- experiment with "AI" of getting likelihoods of commands



TODO LIST EXTRA CREDIT
useful tools to do these (research those yourself or look at other examples!)
  Scanner - read text from files
  PrintWriter - write text to files




VM SHORTCUT TO VIEW CLIPBOARD
- Mac:  Ctrl+Option+Shift
- PC:   Ctrl+Alt+Shift

- Copying INTO VM:
   1. Copy what you want from your computer
   2. Open side panel
   3. Paste into the side panel (from your computer)
   4. Close side panel
   5. Paste AGAIN in your VM
- Copying OUT OF VM:
   1. Copy what you want from your VM
   2. Open side panel
   3. Copy AGAIN out of the side panel
   4. Close it
   5. Paste into your computer's programs


PRIORITIES FOR TODAY
- TodoList app basic funtions should be COMPLETELY DONE
- Web API chosen should be MOSTLY DONE and COMPLETELY UNDERSTOOD (structure of requests for your chosen site)


STATIC VARIABLES MAY BE USEFUL FOR SHARING INFO B/W CLASSES

class MyApp {
  static VarType varName;      creates a variable that can be accessed through the class
                               it's in (not an instance)
}


MyApp.varName ...           any other class can access that variable through the class's
                            name



WEB API NOTES

some nice simple APIs from the list:
  agify.io
  nationalize.io
  (also calculator app linked on syllabus)





AGIFY API EXAMPLE
command: guess my age with michael
command: my name is Melinda
                     I think your age is 28, Melinda




MATH API EXAMPLE

Command: calc 2*(7-3)
                        8
Command: calc 2/3
            0.66666666666



http://api.mathjs.org/v4/?expr=2*(7-3)
                         ^? shows where the query parameters/query strings begin
                          expr=             <-- name of query param
                              =2*(7-3)      <-- value/string for that query param

http://api.mathjs.org/v4/?expr=2%2F3
                          expr=
                              =2%2F3     <-- encoded version of 2 


WEB API PROGRAM FLOW

1. Process the command - get the DETAILS needed from the command that will eventually
    be provided to the site you chose 
2. Form the request - using the documentation you found on your chosen site, put
    together the request using Unirest; requests may have
    a. start with   Unirest.get(url)  or Unirest.post(url)
    b. often include query strings/parameters  with   .queryString(label,value)
    c. might include headers with                     .header(label,value)
    d. can add custom words in the URL using manual string construction OR using
         .routeParam("partOfUrl", "replacement word")  if your original URL had
              {partOfUrl}  within the String
    e. POST requests sometimes have .field(label,value)
    f. to include a labeled part, which has no particular value, just use "" for value
3. make the request with  .asJson().getBody()    or   .asString().getBody()
4. use JSONObject and JSONArray functions to get the pieces you want out of the response
      .getString("labelOfPartOfObject")      .getJSONObject(0)
      .getInt("labelOfIntWithinObject")
5. Assistant.getInstance() and .displayItem(new Response(myResults));
