Learn the idea
HTTP responses include status information that helps a client interpret a request. In this lesson 200 means success,404 means resource not found,403 means forbidden and 500 means a server error. The status alone does not prove an interactive task worked or explain every cause.
Use the supplied status key and separate a response code from task completion. A200 response does not establish that a save or quiz interaction succeeded.
Use this supplied case: HTTP200. Using the status key, classify the response. The task is to connect the given information to the computing idea. Write a short evidence trail so another learner can reproduce your choice. The simplified case describes the stated model, not every real system.
- Represent the supplied worked case with a labeled drawing, table or short trace.
- Use the supplied status key and separate a response code from task completion.
- Explain why the worked answer fits and why one alternative does not.
- Try the new check and practice cases; revisit the stated rule if your evidence does not match.

Take it further
