No solutions given in Advice to parts a and c.

Tolerance of 0.001 in answers to parts a and b. Perhaps should indicate to the student that a tolerance is set. The feedback on submitting an incorrect answer within the tolerance says that the answer is correct - perhaps there should be a different feedback in this case if possible for all such questions with tolerances.

Find the stationary points of the function: $f(x,y)=a x ^ 3 + b x ^ 2 y + c y ^ 2 x + dy$ by choosing from a list of points.

Inputting the values given into the partial derivatives to see if 0 is obtained is tedious! Could ask for the factorisation of equation 1 as the solution uses this. However there is a problem in asking for the input of the stationary points - order of input and also giving that there is two stationary points.

Find the solution of a first order separable differential equation of the form $a\sin(x)y'=by\cos(x)$.

Find the solution of a first order separable differential equation of the form $(a+y)y'=b+x$.

Equations which can be written in the form

\[\dfrac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} = f(x),   \dfrac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} = f(y),   \dfrac{\mathrm{d}y}{\mathrm{d}x} = f(x)f(y)\]

can all be solved by integration.

In each case it is possible to separate the $x$'s to one side of the equation and the $y$'s to the other

Solving such equations is therefore known as solution by separation of variables

Straightforward question: student must find the general solution to a second order constant coefficient ODE. Uses custom marking algorithm to check that both roots appear and that the solution is in the correct form (e.g. two arbitrary constants are present). Arbitrary constants can be any non space-separated string of characters. The algorithm also allows for the use of $e^x$ rather than $\exp(x)$.

Unit tests are also included, to check whether the algorithm accurately marks when the solution is correct; when it's correct but deviates from the 'answer'; when one or more roots is incorrect; or when the roots are correct but constants of integration have been forgotten.
