Dear @phwtsang, thank you for the suggestion. Could you clarify why you think changing the setting of this exercise would make it more clear/relatable/beneficial?

Thanks for your follow-up message. When I first encountered the exercise in question, I was confused by "...num_per_survey is the number that can take part in a single survey". In the age of Google Forms and Survey Monkey, I have been conditioned to "each surveyee getting his/her own survey". Why would anyone enter information for multiple surveyees in the same survey? I wonder if the exercise originated from the days when surveyors would record information by hand on paper. The context feels a little contrived to me.

I see what you mean, the meaning of 'survey' here is not entirely clear. I am not opposed to changing it, and to making it a little more concrete. Would you have time to make a pull request?
