@okjintao Thanks for your review! I've gone through and made changes, as well as left a comment for us to sync up on. |

| Before EIP-2935, smart contracts could access only the last 256 block hashes using the `BLOCKHASH` opcode. This process raised challenges though: | ||
|
|
||
| - Accessing a hash outside that window, returned `0x0`, silently, |

| - `eip2935GasComparison.s.sol` - A solidity script used to deploy the `eip2935GasComparison.sol` and make calls to it to simulate different blockhash reading methods. | ||
| - `run_gas_comparison.sh` - A bash script created to deploy `eip2935GasComparison.sol` and tabulate the gas expenditure results. | ||

| Anyone can later call the system contract to retrieve a blockhash from that range. | ||

I believe I have seen it written in the way I wrote within other guides. So are we always doing relative path locations like this going forward?

Changes made, and also added in a code snippit of what the terminal output should look like when running the script. I left it so the guide still elaborates on the results later on.

| The bash script, `run_gas_comparison.sh` deploys the `eip2935GasComparison.sol` contract on the locally ran anvil fork of Bepolia. It then goes through the results and tabulates the total gas expenses for each blockhashing method, including storing the blockhash or replicating the usage of an oracle. | ||

I continue to go through the solidity code, and the methods assessed after this small section. Did you want me to rewrite it in a particular way?

Thanks for the reviews @okjintao @codingwithmanny. Manny, I made a couple of comments on some of your CRs. Please let me know if you would like me to correct anything else / if I misinterpreted your comments. I will make the same changes to the quickstart (if applicable) in the guides repo.. |
