-The ``problem weight'' parameter is used to calculate the points of a
-problem.  The default spreadsheet uses the wieght as the points.  You
-may want to think of a problem's weight in comparison to other
-problems.  For example, all problems with a weight of 1 means that
-both easy and difficult problems are given the same weight.  If you
-choose to customize the spreadsheet, then the problem weight and
-points may not equal each other for your course.  The default weight
