Create a Problem Set¶
A problem set is a collection of programming-based challenges that your students can work on, either in class or as homework. Students will write code to solve these problems. One of the unique features of Grader Than Feedback is that after each submission, students receive personalized feedback on their code in a student-friendly manner, helping them understand how to improve. Students are encouraged to make multiple submissions, learning through iteration.
