Week 1 Exercises
Each week in 6.01, you will be asked to complete some number of exercises
outside of lab time. These exercises will be completed online through this
software. They will normally be released on Monday mornings, and will come
due on Sunday nights.
Some of the exercises each week will be based on material previously
covered in the course, and some will be designed to help you explore new
material.
The goal of all of these questions is education (not assessment!). They
are worth some points toward your grade, directly, as a motivation to do them.
But the real value is that they will help you learn the course content; your
understanding will ultimately be reflected in your exam scores, which
constitute the majority of your grade. So, copying answers from your friends
or getting questions correct by guessing is a fruitless activity: it will rob you of
the chance to engage with this material in the most educationally useful way.
Each subpart of an exercise offers a place to input your answer, and several
buttons:
Submit: sends your answer to the server to be checked for correctness.
You will be presented with information regarding the correctness of your
answer. You will be allowed to a limited number of submissions per
question.
Save: saves your current answer, but does not submit it for checking or
update your score. This will remove any detailed information provided
from your last submission.
View Answer: displays an answer written by the staff, below the
detailed results from your last submission. Viewing the answer to a
question will prevent any further submissions to that question.
Some questions have additional explanation available through a button
labeled "View Explanation," which becomes available after you have
viewed the answer for that question.
Certain types of questions offer additional options. For example,
questions that involve coding in Python typically offer a "Run Code"
button that runs your code and displays its output (or any error
messages it produced) without scoring your code and without using one
of your limited number of submissions.
