What Gets You Partial Credit? detailed, possible, question, credit, points

I know for the obvious questions, 1 point for yes or no, and 2 points for the explanation/justification - it’s possible to get partial credit for the question if you got one right and the other wrong. But say you had to show a calculation and you showed detailed steps in your work, but you made a computational error. Would that get you partial credit?

I heard the graders get a woody if you write the names of the people in the questions in your answers.

I think for computational stuff partial credit is easy to determine.  What I am concerned more about is for the qualitative responses and how credit may be given out.  Just hope graders can partially value a cogent response that hits on most of salient points.  vs. expecting perfectly replicating the guideline answer or writing some tome about a subject.

yes, most likely
