| Dec 19, 2020 at 2:38 | comment | added | Christophe | Your question is relevant and can be (was) answered using objective arguments. I therefore dared to reword it slightly in order to make it more objective and avoid calling for opinions (out of scope here). I hope you can agree with the edited version. | |

Discuss it with the team. For your teachers? Ask them. As input for a code generator? Then you have to include everything to get the correct code out of it. There is no "right" answer. | |

| Dec 18, 2020 at 17:59 | comment | added | Felix Jönsson | Well I want to know what the general opinion is as well and don't simply only care about getting my assignment "right" per the teachers standard. | |
| Dec 18, 2020 at 17:50 | comment | added | Doc Brown | The idea of UML is to provide a more abstract (=simplified) representation of software than code. But the right amount of simplification depends heavily on the context. For your school assignment, you will have to ask your teachers what they think, not some strangers in the internet. | |
