Yeah, this is a good one - does it matter if you wrote the code, or a computer did? If you can explain how it works, and why it is like that that should mean that you understand it and have learned the important parts.


You could ask it to explain line-by-line for you and memorize that enough to give an oral presentation. You may not get the best grade, but it might be enough for a passing grade.


If you memorize it that's half way to understanding, so fair use
