- `ninjaController` : Controls the ninja by calling `lootBox` twice and moving right four times.

- `lootBox` : Defines a set of actions (moving, picking sushi) for the ninja.

- Parameter: Both functions take a ninja object that has methods like `goRight()` , `goUp()` , etc.

Each function organizes repeated actions into neat, reusable blocks, keeping your code simple and easy to update.


Welcome to the JavaScript Ninja Course! This engaging and interactive course is designed to introduce you to the fundamentals of JavaScript programming through a fun and educational game. You'll guide a ninja through various challenges, using JavaScript to control movements and interact with objects like sushi. Starting with the basics, you'll learn how to navigate the map, pick up and place sushi, and gradually progress to more complex programming concepts such as functions, loops, and conditional statements. Each chapter offers hands-on practice to reinforce your learning, culminating in exciting challenges that test your skills. Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to sharpen your coding abilities, this course provides a comprehensive and enjoyable learning experience. Join us and become a coding ninja!
