The exercise for this week is meant to help you better understand lists in Python, and practice saving changes to your files using Git and GitHub. You will also get to practice the Markdown syntax.
Exercise 2 consists of 3 problems. For each problem you need to modify the notebook by adding your own solutions. Remember to save and commit your changes locally, and push your changes to GitHub after each major change! Regular commits will help you to keep track of your changes (and revert them if needed). Pushing your work to GitHub will ensure that you don't lose any work in case your computer crashes (yes, it can happen!).
- Exercise 2 is due by the start of the next lesson (9:15 am, 15 September 2025).
- Remember to save and commit your changes locally, and push your changes to GitHub after each major change!
- We are working in pairs on this exercise, and we will only grade the repository of the driver in your pair for this week's exercise.
- Please don't change the file name. Do all of your editing in the provided
Exercise-2.ipynbfile.
- You will get immediate feedback each time you edit your assignment and push the changes to github.
- The feedback includes a list of possible improvements and a preliminary grade.
- The feedback bot cannot grade everything, such as markdown cells, so your assignment will also be checked by a course teacher.
- Review the materials for Lesson 2
- Check out the hints for this week's exercise if you're having trouble.
Make sure you have cloned your own repository (note that the name of your exercise repository contains your GitHub username). Check the Lesson 2 materials for instructions on how to use to get started. After solving the problems, remember to commit your changes and push them to GitHub. Remember also to answer all written questions in the exercise in addition to the programming tasks.
Note: Problems 1-3 are all in one notebook. You can start the exercise by clicking on one of the links below.
