Confusion regarding the actual questions in Assignment 0. #9

Closed Willy2606 closed 3 years ago

Willy2606 commented 3 years ago

Hi,

It may be a silly question/issue, but I'm a little confused regarding which questions you expect us to answer throughout Assignment 0. I feel like there's a lot of rhetorical questions up until 3.0, typically written in italic. Are these meant to be answered? - or do they function like a natural way of writing an introduction?

Anyway, please let me know if this forum is only regarded technical issues, etc.

Thanks.

Hi @Willy2606, this forum is for anything related to the summer school :)

The required exercises for the assignment are all the indented exercises with a corresponding code cell where your code should be written together with another code cell consisting of assert statements.

The other "exercises" are implemented to make the learning experience more interactive such that you try the concepts from the videos immediately after having seen them.

Great, I thought so!

Thanks for the quick reply! :)
