"Like that" to a lesser degree. Mine mapped to another unique integer,

yours not a prime, but rather lower. My instructor (of course that was

uni) still gave me good marks, so no scars today.
Marks? Marks can leave scars, depending on the implement used to make
the mark. Personally I give grades and never mark my students. <G>
Good marks leave no marring?
Or at least no scarring. Sometimes mediocre marks lead to scaring, and bad
marks can lead to scarring. In some cases, I'm sure I left more marks on
my
instructors than they left on me. And I didn't even go to uni in Germany.
OTOH, marrying can lead to marring, and even scarring. Mine has only left
good marks so far. No right marks of any kind.
Mediocre marks lead to marring, Sucky scores lead to scarring.
It's both obvious *and* alliterative.
