Comprehension Questions

Question	Answer
Describe in your own words the Rails request/response cycle for viewing an animals detail page	The GET method sends an HTTP request from the computer. The route file in the rails app uses this HTTP request word to help direct the request. It looks at the URI pattern /animals/:id and sends it to the controller. The controller refers to the route within the file, which in this case reads get 'animals/:id', to: 'animals#show', as: 'animal' and runs the show method in the animals controller (the actual data is received after the controller speaks to the model and gets the data associated with the animal of a particular id). The controller then speaks with the view and returns the show.html.erb file to the browser.
Describe one area of Rails that you gained more clarity on with this assignment	I learned a little more about routes and how they interact with one another.
Is there a specific piece of code you'd like more feedback on?	I would like to learn how to call upon pictures in the assets file within the rails app. I wasn't able to figure that out.
What is one aspect of this project that surprised you?	It surprised me how much of this seemed pretty routine, in that we used methods that we had practiced with a couple of assignments already. I guess I can expect those particular methods to show up often.
