-This exercise does not require any specific logic to be added to the [analyzer][analyzer]:
+This exercise could benefit from the following rules in the [analyzer]:
+
+- `actionable`: If the student did not reuse the implementation of the `expectedMinutesInOven` method in the `remainingMinutesInOven` method, instruct them to do so.
+  Explain that reusing existing code instead of copy-pasting can help make code easier to maintain.
+- `actionable`: If the student did not reuse the implementation of the `preparationTimeInMinutes` method in the `totalTimeInMinutes` method, instruct them to do so.
+  Explain that reusing existing code instead of copy-pasting can help make code easier to maintain.
+- `actionable`: If the student left any `// TODO: ...` comments in the code, instruct them to remove these.

+This exercise could benefit from the following rules in the [analyzer]:
+
+- `actionable`: If the solution calculates the Hamming distance each time `getHammingDistance()` is called,
+  instruct the student to calculate the Hamming distance once in the constructor.
+  Explain how this is more efficient.
+- `actionable`: If the solution hard-codes the DNA cells as character literals (`A`, `C`, `G`, `T`) when comparing strands,
+  inform the student that their solution should be able to calculate the Hamming distance between any two strings,
+  regardless of their contents.
+- `informative`: If the solution uses `Instream.reduce()`, inform the student that it can be simplified to `Instream.filter().count()`.

+This exercise could benefit from the following rules in the [analyzer]:
+
+- `essential`: Verify that the solution does not use `java.time.Year.isLeap(int)` or `new java.util.GregorianCalendar().isLeapYear(int)`.
+- `essential`: Verify that the solution does not contain hard-coded years used in the tests.
+- `actionable`: If the solution uses conditional statements like `if/else` or ternary expressions, instruct the student to use simple boolean logic instead.
+- `actionable`: If the solution contains more than 3 checks, instruct the student that their solution can be simplified.

+This exercise could benefit from the following rules in the [analyzer]:
+
+- `essential`: Verify that the solution does not hard-code the names used by the tests (`Alice`, `Bob`).
+- `actionable`: If the solution contains more than one `return` statement, instruct the student to try and only use one.
+  Using multiple `return` statements in this exercise could be an indication of code duplication, as it probably contains the sentence twice:
+
+  ```java
+  String twofer(String name) {
+      if (name == null) {
+          return "One for you, one for me."
+      }
+
+      return "One for " + name + ", one for me."
+  }
+  ```
+
+- `actionable`: If the solution uses an `if` statement, instruct the student to use a ternary expression instead.
+- `actionable`: If the solution uses `String.format`, instruct the student to use simple string concatenation instead.
+  Explain that `String.format` is significantly slower than concatenating strings and should be used in more complex scenarios.
