Tutorials are smaller, typically of size 40, and involve several academics. Eachtutorial is managed by one academic and one teaching assistant, normally a postgraduatestudent. In addition to tutorials, informal drop-in clinics are also provided. These take placein a large, open workspace and are staffed by senior students who assist students needing helpin mastering the course. Laboratory exercises provide further learning experiences, as dovarious online resources. While completion of all laboratory exercises is required, there is noattendance requirement for lectures or tutorials. Online assignments2 provide early

My code was not without errors, and sometimes I would have to fix C code that my scripts had incorrectly modified before debugging the scripts. However, learning and mastering Perl was a lot of fun, and I did great work on the project. By the end of the project, my Perl scripts had probably saved hundreds of hours of manual find and replace work on the project.
