In the real world, subclassing or a protocol would *absolutely* be the way to do this (if the scenario arose at all), not a bunch of blocks. Also it tries to do a whole lot of stuff-- blocks as properties, test suite practice, blocks for externalizing logic, etc.\r\n\r\n*Also*, it breaks a thing we've been telling them from early on -- that classes should be self-contained. Why should the tax logic live in a VC (or wherever), and be passed *in* to the CashRegister? It's not possible to make a useful CashRegister instance with the way this lab is set up. \r\n\r\nSo... I think this should just be scrapped. If it lives on, it needs substantial work in the README and a thorough method/variable name audit."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/learn-co-curriculum/CashMoneyBlocks/issues/comments/132599932","html_url":"https://github.com/learn-co-curriculum/CashMoneyBlocks/issues/15#issuecomment-132599932","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/learn-co-curriculum/CashMoneyBlocks/issues/15","id":132599932,"user":{"login":"markedwardmurray","id":10505365,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/10505365?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/markedwardmurray","html_url":"https://github.com/markedwardmurray","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markedwardmurray/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markedwardmurray/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markedwardmurray/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markedwardmurray/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markedwardmurray/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markedwardmurray/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markedwardmurray/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markedwardmurray/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markedwardmurray/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-08-19T13:34:55Z","updated_at":"2015-08-19T13:34:55Z","body":"I never attempted this lab as a student. I found it overwhelming. Only a few students from ios-004 actually tried it: Bert, Damon, maybe one or two more. Blocks were a major stumbling block (pun intended) for me, so more intermediate practice with blocks i think would be beneficial to the experience."}}
