have done or did

I'd like to find out what the difference is between such sentences:

Do you have your exercise with you now? - No, but I did it.
Do you have your exercise with you now? - No, but I have done it.

I'd like to find out what the difference is between such sentences:

Do you have your exercise with you now? - No, but I did it.
Do you have your exercise with you now? - No, but I have done it.

Without more context, it is impossible to tell if there is any real difference between "No, but I did it" and "No, but I have done it." In both cases the speaker is talking about something that has happened before and is not going on at the present. Offhand, I see no difference in meaning between the two.

What is meant by "Do you have your exercise with you now?"

What does "Do you have your exercise with you now?" mean?

[RonBee]

But what does that mean?

Maybe you wrote your exercises on your body (either because you have no book, or you want to cheat in an exam) :wink:

Well, that's as good an explanation as I have gotten so far.

:wink:
