<ul>
<li>At the bottom of this challenge outline, and for most others you'll see over the course of the week, you'll find some links to external resources. These links will provide you with useful information to help you complete the challenge in question so <b><i>it's super important to look at them</i></b>! Sometimes the links will provide you with everything you need to complete a challenge, sometimes they'll provide you with a jumping off point for further research, but they'll always be worth reading before you resort to checking the walkthrough.</li>
