## WHAT IS IT?
CAT-SOOP is a flexible, programmable learning management system based on the
Python programming language, originally developed primarily for use in
MIT's 6.01 (_Introduction to Electrical Engineering and Computer Science via
Robotics_). Although <b>C</b>AT-SOOP was originally designed as an
<b>A</b>utomatic <b>T</b>utor for <b>S</b>ix-<b>O</b>h-<b>O</b>ne
<b>P</b>roblems, it has since been used in several other courses at MIT, and a
few elsewhere. Read more about CAT-SOOP at [this page](COURSE/docs/about).
