What it covers

The last task of the course builds something you can use for the rest of it: a robot that tests you. It holds a bank of questions, asks them, marks your answers, keeps the ones you got wrong and asks those again, and tells you which topic to revise next. It is retrieval practice (lesson F13.8) with a buzzer.
