Diagnostic algorithm

Extend built-in algorithm?

Base diagnostic algorithm

state (Produces the initial value of the state object): // should be renamed "initial_state"
    [

            [
                "topic": topic,

    ]

topics_by_objective (A dictionary mapping a learning objective name to a list of indices of topics):
    dict(map(
        let(
            ltopics, values(topics),
            indices, filter(lo["name"] in ltopics[j]["learning_objectives"], j, 0..len(ltopics)-1),

        learning_objectives

unknown_topics (Which topics are still unknown?): 
    map(x["topic"],x,filter(x["status"]="unknown",x,state["topics"]))

first_topic (The first topic to pick a question on):
    unknown_topics[floor(len(unknown_topics)/2)]["name"]

first_question (The first question to show the student):
    random(topics[first_topic]["questions"])

    expression("""
        [target] + flatten(map(eval(get_dependents,["target":t,"correct":correct]),t,topics[target][if(correct,"depends_on","leads_to")]))
