Parson's Puzzle programming exercise

[nthiery]

Parson's puzzles are programming exercise where the student is given a program with its lines permuted, and need to fix the order to make the program work. Variants includes also fixing the indentation for indentation-based programming language like Python.

See e.g.:

• A paper: http://crpit.com/confpapers/CRPITV52Parsons.pdf
• A site: http://parsons.problemsolving.io/
• A javascript library: https://github.com/js-parsons/js-parsons
• ...

We may want to add such a type of exercise in PremierLanguage. As a crude first approximation, we could add support for line order/indentation randomization in cpp-info111:

    RANDOM_LINE_PERMUTATION(
         for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
               if (t[0] == x)
                    return true;
         return false;
    )

@mciissee peut jetter un oeil pour que l'on essaye d'intégrer ces puzzle dans un exercice pl.

Nothing urgent: the main purpose is to spread and keep a reference to some fun things other people are doing for programming education.
