Description
Allow the student to enable “Challenge Mode”. In this mode, Popcode tells you the location of errors, but not what the actual errors are (i.e. every error message is something like “There is a problem on this line”).
Bonus: make it possible to reveal a particular error message without disabling challenge mode altogether.
At least one student has requested this as a way to challenge themselves.
