EXercita is a system designed to archive and publish programming exercises. It consists of a repository of structured documents, each describing an exercise, and several tools to manage it. Documents are marked-up with an extension of LaTeX we have designed, called eXercita, and can be automatically published as PostScript files or Web pages. In addition, exercises can be automatically published as a hierarchical Web site that mirrors the structure of the repository.
