Edited a bunch of help files and added many new ones so the cc manual no contains everything that my Training Guide contains. Next step is to edit the files for readability and consistancy in format.

\label{Course_Problem_Weight}

By default, the problem weight is equal to the amount of points the problem
is worth. If the problem is made up of multiple parts each with their own submit
button, then those parts behave as if they were separate problems
and each have their own weight.

If you want to edit the default (i.e award points based on problem weight and 
tries), you will need to edit the LON-CAPA Spreadsheet \ref{Spreadsheet_About}
and the change the Course Environment Parameters \ref{GradingOptions}. In this 
case, 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 of all problems and problem parts is 1.
