+# Dice Lab Assessment
+
+Everything works as expected. Nice work!
+
+## Checkpoint 1
+
+Looking for the sequence endpoints in `is_three_of_a_kind`
+is clever. (You could leave off lines 43 and 44 if you want; 
+every function implicitly returns `nil` in absence of another
+value. But some people prefer to be exlicit. 
+
+## Checkpoint 2
+The content of your docstrings looks good. However, most are above their function
+rather than inside it. This technically works, but defeats some of the purpose of 
+docstrings, as there are automated tools that use them and expect to find them in 
+the right place. 
+
+## Checkpoint 3
+It's interesting to see your developing thinking here--the strategy used in FullHouse
+seems quite a bit cleaner, and could be applied to 3 of a kind and 4 of a kind goals as well.

+Regarding the `self.faces().sort()` error, this is a common frustration for folks newer to,
+Python and it represents an inconsistency in the standard library API which is probably too 
+late to fix. Generally, we expect methods to return something, but `list.sort()` sorts
+the list in-place, but doesn't return a value. The builtin function `sorted()` might provide
+more intuitive behavior.
+
+I also appreciated your thoughts on the value of writing documentation. Could be interesting
+to look into the history of literate programming.
