TPGEN1 Version 1.0 Copyright (C) 1996 by Seah H. Yeoh
*****************************************************************************
Program's Purpose
-----------------
TPGEN1 is a program that randomly selects questions from a database of test
questions and produces test papers. As such, each test paper is different.
The program allows you to define the number of questions in each test paper
and the number of test papers that you need.
Program Name, Version and Status
--------------------------------
TPGEN1.EXE is a freeware. This freeware version may be distributed freely
but not sold.
Disclaimer of Liability
-----------------------
The author of this program is not liable for any damages arising from the use
of this software.
System Requirements
-------------------
TPGEN1.EXE was tested on a 386DX clone, a standard VGA and 120 Mb hard disk
running under MS-DOS 5.0. A mouse is not required. (Note: It is advisable
that you run this program from a hard disk as the output files generated
may be quite large.)
Program Operation
-----------------
To use the program, from the DOS prompt, type:
TPGEN1
and the program will prompt you for the following inputs:
1. Name of the input file
2. Number of questions in a test paper
3. Number of test papers
4. Name of the output file
Notes:
a. The input file name must be a valid DOS file name. Your input file that
contains all your test questions must be in an ASCII text file. Each
line of text must be terminated by a carriage return. There must be only
one blank line separating each test question (including the last question).
There must not be any blank lines before the first question of your input
file.
b. To enter the number of questions in a test paper, you must enter a whole
number greater than 0.
c. To enter the number of test papers, you must enter a whole number greater
than 0.
d. The output file name must be a valid DOS file name. The program will
write the test questions for each test paper to this text file. You can
then use your own favorite text editor/word processor to edit this text
file into separate test papers and format them for printing.
Feedback, Bugs Report and Updates
---------------------------------
I welcome any questions on or suggestions for enhancing this sotware. Please
report any bugs. I look forward to updating this software to suit your needs.
