The zip-file must contain a pdf-file ...

[Joel_Cruz]

Hi everybody,
I have a problem regarding a task from my university and I hope you can help. The exact statement is:
"The zip-file must contain a pdf-file with the solutions answers to the programming task exercises and the program (Matlab, Python, CC, ...)"
I think there are two possible interpretations:
The first one is to attach a zip-file that must contain a pdf-file with both the solutions answers to the programming task exercises and the program.
The second one is to attach a zip-file that must contain a pdf-file with the solutions answers to the programming task exercises and, without including it in the pdf-file (only in the zip-file), the program.
I would really appreciate your feedback.
Joel

From the way it's phrased it sounds like the zip-file must include two things: 1) a pdf-file; 2) a program (an executable file).

But if there's doubt, you'd want to doublecheck it with the instructor.

 

[Joel_Cruz]

You are right, so I will ask the instructor. Thanks for your answer!!

Does it really say "solutions answers"?

Joel_Cruz, I know that you're a new member, but in future, please do not post the same question simultaneously to more than one forum. Doing so wastes our valuable time. Instead, post your question to one forum and wait for replies. If you're not satisfied with those replies, you can try another forum, but please indicate in your thread that you've already asked the same question elsewhere (provide a link), and outline why you were not satisfied with the answers you received already.

I think they have more computer experts there than we do here. (I could be wrong.) They use a lot of technical language.

(The past tense of "teach" is "taught".)
