Introduction
-^^^^^^^^^^^^
+============
This project provides an "exam" app that lets users take an online
programming quiz.
Features
-^^^^^^^^
+========
- Define fairly complicated programming problems and have users solve
the problem.
- Immediate verification of code solution.
-- Supports pretty much arbitrary coding questions in Python, C, C++ and
- simple Bash and uses "test cases" to test the implementations of the
- students.
-- Supports simple multiple choice questions and File uploads.
-- Since it runs on your Python, you could technically test any Python
+- Supports pretty much arbitrary coding questions in Python, C, C++, Java, R, Scilab and
+ Bash.
+- Supports Multiple choice, Fill in the blanks, Arrange options and File upload based questions.
+- Since it runs on Python, you could technically test any Python
based library.
+- Create course with lessons and quiz for online learning.
