    I did the same thing. It was allowed in general, with the correct thought, “if you can code it yourself, you know the content”

    I had another “program” that would fail to run but that’s because I wrote notes into it. Doubt that was allowed.

        They did that here too, but students would use a cheat program that made it look like teachers were resetting it, but really the memory was safe

          I don’t remember if they fully closed the loopholes, but there are inputs that programs cannot catch unless you actually replace the OS.

        Oh I would have been so pissed. I was programming on my calculator 24/7 instead of my classes.

        I wrote a sudoku “editor”

        I put that in quotes because I had a grid that could be navigated, arrows moved, storing the numbers, had number entry down, and then I learned the hard way what p vs np is.

      I did that but made it return success before it got to the notes. You had to scroll to get to the notes, but it looked innocuous before that.
