GUIDED PROJECTS

Labs

Not just exercises: each lab is a small project. You get a brief and some data, write the code, answer a few questions and explain your approach.

  1. 1Read the brief and the given data
  2. 2Code in a notebook that runs on your computer
  3. 3Submit: we check it against hidden tests
  4. 4Answer and explain to finish each stage

Code runs in a notebook on your own computer, and your submission is re-checked on our server against hidden tests. A lab is completed when every stage has passing code and an explanation (the questions are a self-check). Labs don't count toward track certificates or your CD Score.
