Hi all,

I'm preparing a course on Monte Carlo simulation and would like try Julia 
as the teaching language, though the students may use any language they 
prefer to do their homework. 

JuliaBox seems a good platform given that no local installation is needed, 
which might intimidate some students and prevent them from leaving their 
comfort zone. However, I noticed that there is an item in my JuliaBox 
account that indicates "Time remaining: x hours y minutes (out of allotted 6 
hours)". 
Does this mean that the Julia session/instance will be disconnected after 
6-hours' usage? 

This certainly won't be a problem during my 2-hour lectures. But I'm 
concerned that when students work on their homework assignments/projects on 
JuliaBox, it'd be quite unpleasant to be disconnected while running a 
lengthy MC computation. Any suggestions? 

Thanks,
Xiaowei
