Shows how to use the "random person" extension to pick random names for people in your questions.

This question demonstrates defining an 'unknown' function $F(x)$ as a custom function so that it can be used in marking.

The definition of $F$ is arbitrary, so care must be taken to ensure it doesn't have more properties, such as evenness, than necessary.

This shows how to use captured groups in a mathematical expression part's pattern restriction to mark an answer involving multiple occurrences of an undefined function.

Experimental question using JSXGraph to provide dynamic, interactive graphs.

There are copious comments in the definition of the function eqnline about the voodoo needed to have a JSXGraph diagram interact with the input box for a part.

A demo of the match text pattern part and its options.

The student is shown two number entry gaps on either side of a 'less than' sign. Their answer is marked correct if the first number is less than the second, using a custom marking algorithm.

This shows how to mark the gaps in a gap-fill part together, rather than independently.

This shows how to define a question variable whose value is a variable name with a few annotations added, so it's more convenient to use.

The question variable 'x' is defined to be the variable name vec:underline:x.

The student is given a value of $\cos(\theta)$ and has to find $\theta$.

Shows how to use subexpressions to represent randomly-chosen fractions of $\pi$ and surds, and have them displayed nicely.

Shows how to create a simplified JME subexpression, and substitute it into a string variable.

To prevent students from giving a trivial answer for a part which is used later in adaptive marking, you can consider it as invalid.

Part a of this question has a custom marking algorithm which marks an answer of zero as invalid. Any other answer is used in adaptive marking for part b.

Use the bareMatrices display flag to render a matrix without wrapping it in parentheses.

A demonstration of how to use the "variable list of choices" option for a "choose one from a list" part to shuffle only some of the choices, and always have the same "I don't know" choice at the end of the list.

This question uses a "formatted text template" variable to define a long passage of text which is shown to the student after they submit a part. A custom marking algorithm adds the text as a comment after the standard marking algorithm has finished.

This question uses the linear algebra extension to generate a system of linear equations which can be solved.

We want to produce an equation of the form $\mathrm{A}\mathbf{x} = \mathbf{y}$, where $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathbf{y}$ are given, and $\mathbf{x}$ is to be found by the student.

First, we generate a linearly independent set of vectors to form $\mathrm{A}$, then freely pick the value of $\mathbf{x}$, and calculate the corresponding $\mathbf{y}$.

To generate $\mathrm{A}$, we generate more vectors we need, then pick a linearly independent subset of those using the subset_with_dimension function.

The gap-fill part in this question is only marked correct if both gaps are correct.

The feedback from the individual gaps is not shown.

A custom marking algorithm for a JME part estabishes whether the student's answer is equivalent to the expected answer, up to an arbitrary constant factor.

Given two numbers, find the gcd, then use Bézout's algorithm to find $s$ and $t$ such that $as+bt=\operatorname{gcd}(a,b)$. Finally, find all solutions of an equation $\mod b$.

The student's answer is a fraction of two polynomials. First check that the student's answer is a fraction, then check that the numerator is of the form $x+a$.

To find the script, look in the Scripts tab of part a.

Based on an activity tweeted by Richard Perring.

An all-or-nothing marking scheme for a gap-fill part: the student must answer every gap correctly to get all the marks. If any gap is incorrect they get 0 marks for the whole part.

Demo question: do some sneaky symbolic differentiation to check that the student's answer is the integral of the expression they're given.

Needs an advice section before it can be used.

Doesn't work - used the old extension.

Mark a GeoGebra worksheet.

Needs a worked solution.

Experimental question using JSXGraph to provide dynamic, interactive graphs.

Find a regression equation.

Now includes a graph of the regression line and another interactive graph gives users the opportunity to move the regression line around. Could be used for allowing users to experiment with what they think the line should be and see how this compares with the calculated line.

Also includes an updated SSE to see how the sum of the squares of the residuals varies with the regression line.
