Summary

This chapter provided you with basic information on creating a Packet Tracer assessment. The assessment engine provides a lot of scope for working with variables. A variable allows flexibility in procuring a wide range of user inputs. Packet Tracer also provides a scripting engine; using your programming skills, you can create more interactivity within the assessment.
