Prog string --- Introduction ---

This modules gathers 50 interactive programming exercises, variable and configurable, on the processing of strings. The software can ask you to produce an algorithm to count or modify the string according to various formulas. It will then compile your submitted code and test it on randomly generated strings for the validity of the code. The easiest case is here.
