The LESSON_NUMBER for both mods are the same yet the formats are different. I understand that the LESSON_NUMBER corresponds to that of NUSMods, but it would be easier as users if the formats were consistent throughout all the modules

Team's Response

Currently the lesson numbers are consistent. As stated in the UG, lesson numbers are currently sorted lexicographically. Hence the lesson number display as attached by the user is actually consistent and as per design.

However, perhaps sorting of lessons can be further improved upon for future iterations to make it easier for the user. Hence, dev team has decided to accept as NotInScope.

It was not implemented as currently, NUS class numbers are not standardised. Some of the class numbers are alphanumeric while some are numeric, thus it is not possible to easily implement a sorting method for class number which fits all different formats of class number. Hence why the decision to use lexicographical sorting of the class numbers was made.
