Could you explain to me about that while loop?
You first defined it to be false but while you were running that while loop why did you use !defeated and how was that loop running even you defined it as false in the first place?

Hi Bibek,
Sure. The while loop runs as long as defeated is set to false - pay attention to the ! in the condition that checks if defeated is set to false, which is the case in the beginning.
As soon as one character has been defeated, we set the variable to true, and the fight stops. Makes sense?

Hope this helps.

Take care,
Patrick

I got it. I thought !defeated will be changed to true after doing this since it was declared false for the first time

Anyway, your whole course is great. Do you have other courses related to .net and react

Thank you very much! :)

I'm currently working on a .NET 5 and a Blazor course. Would that be of interest to you?

Take care,
Patrick

Seriously educational. With abundant video based courses around, i didn't expect to enjoy following a blog/article series based course. I ended up following it all the way to the end of the course! Hope you'll make more courses like this!

Thank you so much!

OMG!
Done! Finally :)
I've been waiting soooo long for this moment to say "Hooray!" for myself for successfully finishing this amazing tutorial and also say a BIG "THANK YOU!", for the second time to you Patrick!
Amazing job in this tutorial!
Cause I personally think like, I've started as an absolute novice in .NET Core and SQL Server and now I'm a junior web developer that has successfully built an API, connected her app to a real DB and managed all the crucial operations between her web app and database, used JWT for authentication and even has developed a further feature for fighting some RPG characters =)
And that's great!
But, I also have a question from you, that I'd really appreciate your answer to it: Where should I go for more learning in the Back-end development area with this technology stack next?

Congratulations!! :)

I'm really glad you completed the whole series.

To your question: What do you want to build?
Think about expanding your web application or build a new one. That way you will find new challenges yourself and it's a good way to dive even deeper.

Apart from that, the online course is coming soon. ;) If you have any suggestions, please don't hesitate to tell me.

Take care,
Patrick

Yeah! Nice idea to keep going forward, thank you :) 👍
And for your coming soon course, I'm sure it'd be great just like this one, but for more suggestions, I will make sure that you'd be aware of them, whenever a new idea would come to my mind : D cause your tutorial is already well-structured enough for any beginner looking for some resources to start his/her journey!

Hi Patrick.

Thank you so much for taking the time to put this tutorial series together. The content is excellent and really well presented. I'm an experienced developer of some 30 years, but having been away from the coalface of ASP.NET for a couple of years this is exactly what I needed to get up to speed with .NET core and APIs in particular. The bonus was an insight into EF Core as well.

Great work .. really appreciated.
Si.

Nice! :) I'd suggest for the video that you keep it pretty much the same format as in this blog:
-> each step first explained by the logic flow and with images etc..
-> then the completed code for that part with an iteration on how the logic is applied.
Going through the steps with the necessary explaination and application would make a great playlist of small and informative videos in my opinion :p

I'd personally love to see more rpg & networking related logics no matter what the language is. To learn there's nothing that I love more than seeing code applied in a rpg theme!
