    It seems you did the best you could with what you had to work with. It’s a shame the other users don’t understand that you didn’t get to choose the tools your students could use and instead went with what they, in their freedom to choose and install what they want, would have used to teach. I can imagine you only had notepad and Idle to use.

    • Thanks. From memory we were using repl.it, or something very similar. This made it easy for me to look at their code when they had problems (and even then, as I said to someone else, it was quite a while before I realised one of them simply had the wrong indentation on one line - I kept looking at the code and thinking I couldn’t see anything wrong with it, then eventually I realised there was a wrong indentation. If it took me that long to realise, then of course that’s something students are going to struggle with).
