I received the following question concerning Homework 3:
On question 4, you ask: “Why is the use of mutable variables being discouraged? What benefits does it provide?”
For the second part, what does “it” refer to?
Sorry for the ambiguity! “It” refers to the use of mutable variables being discouraged.
I am updating the text of question 4 on Homework 3 to try to remove the ambiguity. FYI.
