They are algorithmically generated so students can retry an exercise as many times as they would like with new values each time. Every exercise is accompanied by an example and an interactive guided solution that gives students helpful feedback if they enter an incorrect answer. Selected exercises also include a video clip so students can have help visualizing concepts.
