How do I offer students hints in Cody Coursework?

With the introduction of Cody Coursework, I'm sometimes asked how the Test Suite can be used to offer hints for students struggling to complete coursework assignments and practice.

A good way to provide hints to students is to use the msg input argument with assert in your test suites. For example, you could use this syntax for assert:

assert(cond,msg)

where

msg

is a string that contains your hint.

For details and examples, visit the MathWorks documentation for assert .
