This easy question is intended to be used by administrators to test the integration of Numbas with a learning environment.

In four parts, the student builds up the definition of a class representing a rectangle. First they write the constructor, then add methods to compute area and perimeter.

In the final part, they must use the methods to write a function which determines if a rectangle's area is larger than its perimeter.

Some questions demonstrating how explore mode can be used.

Shows how the "give a number which satisfies an equation" part type can be used to makr the student's number correct if it satisfies an equation of the form $f(x) = 0$.

Shows how to use the bin function to group data into equal-sized intervals.

An experiment using a PhET applet. The student can attach masses of different weights to a spring, and is asked to measure and record how far it stretches. Their measurements are shown on a graph, and they're asked to estimate the formula for the length in terms of the mass.

The student is shown a diagram with measurements of rooms in a house. They have to enter the measurements in a spreadsheet, then the area of each room, and finally the total area of the house.

Using some passages of text, fill in a product fact sheet.

A simple example showing how to mark entries in a spreadsheet.

Fill in a truth table: the values for "A" and "B" are filled in, and the student has to work out "A or B" and then "(A or B) implies B".

Given a data sheet with distances between cities and costs for different forms of transport, and some information about modes of transport used, fill in a form for a journey.

Demonstrates how to construct a spreadsheet value from scratch, without uploading an .xlsx file.

The student is shown a table with rows for each class in a school, and two columns of numbers: books, and children. They have to work out the column totals, and the number of books per child, and enter them in the table.

Several questions demonstrating the spreadsheets extension

Draws a diagram showing a randomly-chosen number of circles, packed in a box.

This question defines an otherwise-pointless pre-submit task of "wait for a while" before marking the student's answer, in order to demonstrate how to use the pre-submit tasks feature.

A question designed to demonstrate the exam-level variable overrides feature. The student must work out the median of a given sample. The exam can override size of the sample, the range of numbers to pick, and whether the sample should be shown to the student in increasing order.

Demonstration of the written number extension, which converts whole numbers to words.
