1. Describe the problem
The array episode was merged prematurely, is poorly integrated with the rest of the material, and lacks a description of the array mechanism prior to its inclusion as an exercise. It's omitted from the master index of lessons for this reason, but should be fixed and re-included.
2. Propose a solution
Fix this episode to have more descriptive content and be better-integrated with the flow of the lesson and workshop. Ideally, find a way to use the amdahl executable without excessive cognitive burden on learners.
3. Impact on Instructors
This will increase the overall length of the HPC Intro lesson, which might complicate workshop planning. There is currently no accepted solution to ramping up learners to the amdahl executable, which might require more lesson time also.
