[LON-CAPA-users] Significant digits in customresponse: "Submission not graded. Use more digits."

[Mills, Douglas G]

Hi Stefan,

I posed the same question about a year and a half ago ‹ not sure there was
an answer for it though. For other reasons we ended up suppressing the
automated responses and using our own, so for the sig fail simply tell the
students to check their sig figs.
