HOCUS-FOCUS 2


Six Differences:
1. Dog's distance to the boy
2. Antenna behind the car
3. Hat is different style
4. The coats: plaid/solid
5. Poster on the tree trunk
6. Poster on the bus stop

This activity would help us as an HTML programmer to see the small differences in the codes.

I found six differences in the picture.

Yes these differences pop out once they have been pointed out to me.







Six differences:
1. Plant
2. Birdhouse
3. Hat turned backwards
4. Sleeve design
5. Collar width
6. Glasses in the dad's hand

This actvity (finding six differences) would help me as an HTML programmer becuase it makes me look closer for the details which is very useful in HTML that way we see the little mistakes or perhaps just make things better.

I discovered 6 differences in the pictures.

Yes once the differences were pointed out, they were much more noticeable.

In order to write better codes, we should really look out for the differences sometimes their hidden and camouflaged between all those letters and signs. Just as we did in this activity.
