Once again the code provides us with the correct answer.

I have X'd out the answer so our student has to open his code book up and find it for him self.

We always try to have the student put forward some effort instead of blurting out an answer for them. After they post what they think the answer is and how they came about getting it we can critique the answer and help them.

I guess if the question mark was behind than rather than the blank some slack could be given.
