| 2.1 Creating a new problem |
To create a new problem, click on the "New" button in the Problems Panel. The textfields below the button, which were previously uneditable, will automatically fill with default values and become editable. This is an opportunity to set the name, number of attempts, and the ordering of the problem; however, these can also be changed later, as will be described in the following section. It is worthwhile to note that a value of zero in the 'Attempts' textfield allows the person solving the problem an infinite number of attempts at the problem, while any positive integer value in the 'Attempts' textfield will allow the user only that number of attempts. To complete the creation of this problem, click the 'Update' button at the bottom of the Problems panel.
