Although the clang compiler has a shorter history than GCC, it has areputation for providing compiler output and better diagnostics[10], [11]. In addition, as an entirecompiler infrastructure, there are many tools built with clang as a basis, as we’ll see in section .However, recent versions of both compilers have mostly caught up with each other, either optionworks well.To install these compilers, MacOS and Linux users can use a package manager (such as Homebrewor apt/dnf) to easily install either of the two compilers.Under Windows, which is used by the many students as their personal computer, this picture is morecomplicated.

This part of the rubric examines the degree to which students are allowedto exert agency and participate in team-learning environments that reflect real-world contextsand social impacts. The rubric encourages activities that engage every student, ensuring that alleducational experiences are hands-on and relevant to students' lived experiences andsocioeconomic backgrounds.Each of these sections contains specific items, totaling 27, which describe behaviors andpractices ranging from those that perpetuate inequity to those that foster an inclusive atmosphere.For example, under the "Head" section, item 1

Students were allowed to submit their MATLAB Grader problemsan infinite number of times and they were due at the start of the next class period.
