Fizzbuzz

I was today years old when I found out what fizzbuzz was. Yes, I'm late to the party. I was in an interview where the interviewer mentioned that ordinarily they would ask interviewees in for a round of fizzbuzz challenges, as I know. Actually sir, no, I don't know 👀 But he sounded so certain that I must surely know what it is that I was afraid to say anything so I did what I always do when I panic. Look right back saying not a word. I googled this mysterious fizzbuzz problem:  It looks pretty easy. I don't think he meant this actual problem, but problems like this. Because this problem is way too easy to be an actual problem someone asks in an interview. I decided to work on it for fun:  Yup. Super easy. I wish this is all I were asked in an interview 😄 

Fixing it

Today, the first day of 6 weeks of live projects. Trying to figure out how to use SendGrid in C#'s .net framework. I was following the tutorial provided by Microsoft  when I was momentarily held back by red squiggly lines. Googled. Got confused. Stared at the solution some more, and somehow, it began to make sense. The tutorial is old and uses an older version of SendGrid. I had 2 options. Migrate to the latest version or uninstall and install the old version via Package Manager Console in Visual Studio. I'm still trying to figure things out, so I decided to go with the later option and use the older version. The red squiggly lines are gone and I'm feeling just a smidgen more pleased with myself.  Note to self: Do not panic when encountering red squiggly lines.
