This online programming course is not impressing me.

Oh, it's not my course. Oldest is doing it for high school credit. So far either it omitted or he missed a simple but key step in setup. Given he's a high-schooler, I'd normally chalk that up to reading the instructions too fast.

Except it also had him copy/paste an imperfect program about ages, which he did, and build it until he cleared all the errors, which he did. And then claimed it would output his name and address. Which, fortunately for my sanity, it was not able to do without those having been input to it.

What the heck....

Yes, I will send an email to the school later. Getting the lesson name and info to let the online coordinator know about it will mean using his chromebook, which he needs to use to do other schoolwork. That is hopefully not attempting to make a psychic computer.
