I see I did (first time around exploring the SaaS1 class) create a github account
but have not used it really yet.

Will the URL work this time?

Let me know if you can see this - also - how do I see that you responded
or commented on these - you said you commented earlier on the not-logged-in
post of a gist whose URL worked for me.

Here is my first question on Homework #2 Problem #1 and I did the worst on question #1 (where I got the most parts incorrect).

Part 1: Unary Constraints: 
My incorrect answer was: (i), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) 
Domains after unary constraints: 
A: (1,1), (1,3), (2,2), (2,3) 
B: (1,3), (2,3) 
C: (1,1), (1,2), (1,3), (2,1), (2,2) 
D: (1,2), (2,1)

My code for 169.1 (take 2) homework #1 question #2 (RPS game) is below along with the testing output.

I realize that you should take any nested level of an RPS game, but I started out simply here, not yet
knowing how to do any nesting level, so that would be my first question.

But given my code below and the test cases I gave it, the specific 8 player given in the description,
along with the 16 player, this works fine for me.  Yet it fails the autograder, so this simplified version
that does not allow any nesting level is my first question.

I'm new to Ruby and have mostly been writing in Python and before that C, so new to this syntax,

In this 169.1 homework #1 question #3, I can see that I find the anagrams correctly and put them in a list,
but it is not in the correct form for the expected output.  I am guessing here that my ignorance with Ruby
is causing me trouble here again?

 HW 1-3: Anagrams

An anagram is a word obtained by rearranging the letters of another word. For example, "rats", "tars", and "star" are anagrams of one another, as are "dictionary" and "indicatory". We will call any array of single-word anagrams an anagram group. For instance, ["rats", "tars", "star"] is an anagram group, as is ["dictionary"].

For 169.1 saas homework #1 question #4, I have not yet read in the book about this which is what I plan to do later today.
So that may help me here.  For this question, it passes 4 of the 6 autograder tests.

 HW 1-4: Basic Object Oriented Programming

Part A: Create a class Dessert with getters and setters for name and calories. Define instance methods healthy?, which returns true if a dessert has less than 200 calories, and delicious? which returns true for all desserts.

Here is the framework:

Below someone named pyTony (who was also in my Python class last semester from MIT) posted the following solutions
to his project1, which I used to try to get mine working after the due date, since he had posted them, and then
they took down the solutions, perhaps since they want to reuse these questions another time, not sure.
Those are from search.py and all work (dfs, bfs, ucs, astar searching).  I don't know if you were in the MIT class
in Python last semester, but they were much more lenient (and may have changed since then) about not only posting
an official solution after the due date, but they also allowed ALL students who may have had different approaches
to the problem to post their solutions for comparison and learning purposes on the class Wiki, and in the cases where 
I got the answer wrong, I was able to correct it and move onto the next project the next week, or in the cases where 
I got it correct but someone had implemented a better and more efficient solution, I could also learn from that.
