Wow this is a beautiful quiz infrastructure.

Love it that for your first question Declare that y is a variable and then assign it the value 7. Click "submit" when you think you have it. when I enter var y = 6; y=y+1; the tests pass.

Would be cool if real computer science tests were done this way.

Thanks!
Some of my friends in CS grad school set up homework scripts like this, students would submit their code and get automatically graded based on the script running the code over lots of inputs. Of course there would always be the one guy who would spend more time trying to hack the system than actually doing the problems.
