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

[Stefan Bisitz]

Hi Doug,

Thanks, using own feedback would be indeed a possibility. How do you 
manage this? I am not aware that the rather old idea of a neutral return 
code in custom response for own purposes has been implemented yet. Do 
you use conditional hints?
