Question in How-tos
This question shows how to generate a random set of $(x,y)$ samples, where $y = mx + c + \mathrm{noise}$.
The JSXGraph extension is used to show a scatter plot of the data. This isn't necessary if you just want to generate the data.

Question in How-tos
A mathematical expression part with a pattern restriction to ensure that the student has extracted the highest common factor of two terms.
The answer must be of the form $a(b+cx)$, where $b$ and $c$ are coprime.

Question in How-tos
The student is asked to give the roots of a quadratic equation. They should be able to enter the numbers in any order, and each correct number should earn a mark.
When there's only one root, the student can only fill in one of the answer fields.
This is implemented with a gap-fill with two number entry gaps. The gaps have a custom marking algorithm to allow an empty answer. The gap-fill considers the student's two answers as a set, and compares with the set of correct answers.
The marking corresponds to this table:
There is one root There are two roots Student gives one correct root 100% 50%, "The root you gave is correct, but there is another one." Student gives two correct roots impossible 100% Student gives one incorrect root 0% 0% Student gives one incorrect, one correct root 50% "One of the numbers you gave is not a root". 50% "One of the numbers you gave is not a root". Student gives two incorrect roots 0% 0% -
Question in How-tos
The expected answer involves the logarithm of a negative number, which doesn't have a unique solution.
The part's marking algorithm evaluates the exponential of the student's answer and the expected answer, and compares those.

Question in How-tos
The expected answer involves the logarithm of a negative number, which doesn't have a unique solution.
The part's marking algorithm checks that the student's answer differs from the expected answer by a multiple of $2\pi$.

There's one question, which you have to get right 5 times in a row. If you get it wrong, you have to start again.
This makes more sense if the question is randomised!

Question in How-tos
This shows one way of laying out matrix cells in a table, so that some cells can be filled in by the student.
At the time this was written, there's an open issue for allowing some entries in the matrix entry part to be filled-in, which would make this technique redundant.
Some CSS in the preamble adds the brackets around the table - it has to have the attribute
class="matrix-gaps"

Question in How-tos
The student is given a quadratic formula and asked to fill in a table of values of $f(x)$ for a given range of $x$.
The table uses the spreadsheet extension.

Question in How-tos
The student is given a quadratic formula and asked to fill in a table of values of $f(x)$ for a given range of $x$.
There is also a plot of the points, which updates when the table is filled in, or the student can move the points to fill in the table.
The table uses the spreadsheet and JSXgraph extensions.

Question in How-tos
This question shows how to use the question's JavaScript preamble to request data from an external source, and use that data in question variables.
Note that this means the question only works when the external source is available. Use this very carefully, and avoid it if you possibly can!

Question in How-tos
This question shows how explore mode can be used to loop through several versions of the same question. The variables for each version are stored in a list of "scenarios", and a counter works through that list each time the student moves on to the next part, labelled "try the next version of this question".

Question in How-tos
The student is shown a passage of code in the prompt to a "choose several from a list" part.
-
Question in How-tos
A random proper fraction $a/b$ with denominator in the range 2 to 30 is picked, and the student must write $\frac{a}{b} \pi$.
The point of this question is to demonstrate that the correct answer is shown as a multiple of $\pi$ rather than a decimal.

Question in How-tos
The number entry part in this question has an alternative answer which is marked correct if the student's number satisfies an equation specified in the custom marking algorithm.

Question in CHY1201 - SpectroscopyQuestion requires students to themselves calculate how many electrons are in the conjugated system for the molecules included in this question. As is standard for applications of the "particle in a box" model, the embedded assumption is that one electron is donated to the pi-system by each carbon within the conjugated chain. Students instructed to assume that there are 22 conjugated electrons in Beta-carotene.
