#TGETTING ANSWERS
#C2,R5
In this Chapter we will look at ~HQuizzes~N and ~HTests~N. A ~HQuiz~N consists of up to
ten ~HQuestions~N which are matched with their ~HAnswers~N. A ~HTest~N consists of up to
ten ~HMultiple-choice Questions~H, each with up to six ~HAnswers~N to choose from.
Each ~HTest Question~N can also contain a ~HHint~N. Answers are presented in random
order so are different ever time the ~HQuiz~N or ~HTest~N is taken.
Both ~HQuizzes~N and ~HTests~N can have a ~HDifficulty Level~N of ~H1~N, ~H2~N or ~H3~N.
At ~HLevel 1~N the student keeps trying until all questions are answered correctly.
At ~HLevel 2~N two attempts are allowed, and at ~HLevel 3~N only one. ~HLevels 2~N and
~H3~N display the results in Graph form together with ~HComments~N you provide.
And you can use ~G~IVoice~N or ~G~IMusic~N for these '~HComments~N'.
~HQuizzes~N and ~HTests~N are created using the ~HIntegrated Development Environment
~C~IUtilities~N. So choose ~G~IUtility Programs~N at the ~C~IMain Menu~N then ~G~ITests~N or
~G~IQuizzes~N at the ~C~IAuthor Utilities Menu~N.

have an introduction.

In the next Chapter we will learn
about Voice and Music files. You
can use them in place of Comments
by substituting the Commands
#Vvoicefile or #Pmusicfile
in place of any Comment.
Notice how the Command is used in
the 100% Comment, then answer the
Test correctly to hear it.

Well, you've seen how ~HQuizzes~N and ~HTests~N are created. Now all you need to
know is the ~HCommand~N to put them on screen.
~C~I#QT,Q,filename~N sets up the ~HQuiz~N format and ~C~I#QT,T,filename~N is used to set
up a ~HTest~N. No extension is needed on the filename, since ~H.QIZ~N or ~H.TST~N is
automatically added when the ~HQuiz~N or ~HTest~N is created. If you accidently use
the ~HQuiz Command~N for a ~HTest~N or vice versa, you will get an error message that
the file cannot be found.
Let's have a look at them.

Now for the Branching Question, which is the most powerful. It is a ~HMultiple
Choice~N format with up to six answers to choose from. The following ~HCommands~N
are used :
~H@Qt~N Marks the start of the ~HMultiple Choice~N question and
identifies it by number ~Ht~N between 0 and 9.
~H#QM,A,t,n~N Set up a MOUSED format for ~Hn~N answers. Maximum value for
~Hn~N is ~H6~N. The ~Hn~N answers must appear immediately below this
~HCommand~N.
~H@n~N Marks the start of the section dealing with ~HAnswer n~N.
~H#QM,L,t~N Loops back to ~H@Qt~N and restates the question and choices.
~H#QM,C,t~N Jumps forward to ~H@Ct~N to rejoin the ~M~ITutorial~N.
~H@Ct~N Marks where to rejoin the ~M~ITutorial~N.

Let's look at an example. We'll set up a ~HMultiple Choice~N question to choose
the name of the sixth President of the United States, and give three names to
choose from. If the wrong answer is chosen, we'll make a brief comment and
return to the question to choose again. If the answer is correct, we'll
give a little reward with 'encouraging music' and rejoin the ~G~ITutorial~N.
Here are the three names : ~H James Monroe;
John Quincy Adams;
Andrew Jackson.~N
The question is '~H Who was the sixth President of the United States ?~N'

Since each ~HMultiple Choice Question~N is identified with the ~C~I@Qn~H Command~N
your ~M~ITutorial~N can have ten of them in each ~HCHAPTER~N i.e. ~C~I@Q0~N .. ~C~I@Q9~N.
A point to note when using the ~HMultiple Choice~N question is that, if you
are using the ~HStandard Edition~N of ~H~bTutorialWriter~N, when the program returns to
repeat the question, ~Hthe file is closed and read in from the top~N. If the file
is long, there can be delays. With the compiled version, ~H~bTutorialWriter Pro~N,
there is no delay.
