Programming assignments aren't just about passing tests they're a low-stakes way to practice the same skills real software engineers use every day: debugging root causes, testing edge cases, managing trade-offs like algorithmic complexity, and writing code that's maintainable rather than just functional. The gap between coursework and production software is real, but assignments are where that gap starts closing.
