Code Fragments

Assessment of code fragments:

- students have to solve a code problem, e.g. "Write a Perl function
which delivers a random number between 1 and 100."

- students submit their code, e.g. a function

- LON-CAPA compiles and checks this code using test cases

- LON-CAPA provides feedback to students: code runs as expected or not

- authors can create code problems
 
- authors can specify test cases

- support for different programming languages as plug-ins: JAVA, C++,
Perl, SQL, ...
