Part 14: MatrixMCAnswer¶

With the answer type mc.matrix you can arrange your multiple choice problem in a matrix layout.

Rows and columns can be permuted. That's optional, as are the title name for rows and the title name for columns.

• \permuterows{min index}{max index}
• \permutecolumns{min index}{max index}
• \rowTitle{row title}
• \columnTitle{column title}

The column labels are defined by the \tasks command. The labels are seperated by a simicolon. As usual
you can write TeX, math, use variables and image references as a label.

• \tasks{column 1 label; column 2 label; ...}, e.g. \tasks{$e^x$; some text; function $\var{f}$;\image{image lid}}

Each row is defined in its own environment.

• \begin{row} ... \end{row}

The row labels are defined by the \text command inside a row environment. As usual you can write TeX, math, use
variables and image references as a label.

• \text{row label}

As in other multiple choice problems, a choice is defined by a choice environment.
See Part 2: create multiple choice problems for details.

Example code¶

  \begin{answer}

    \text{What do you think of the following functions?}

    \permuterows{1}{2} %optional
    \permutecolumns{1}{3} %optional
    \rowTitle{Properties} %optional
    \columnTitle{Functions} %optional

    % column 1-4 labels
    \tasks{$sin(\var{a}x)$;$e^x$;$42$; \image[100][100]{image1}}

    \begin{row}

      % row 1 label
      \text{beautiful}

      \begin{choice}
           \solution{compute}
           \iscorrect{a}{<}{4}
      \end{choice}

      \begin{choice}
        \solution{true}

      \begin{choice}
        \solution{false}
      \end{choice}

      \begin{choice}

      \end{choice}

    \end{row}

    \begin{row}

      % row 2 label
      \text{useful}

      \begin{choice}
        \solution{true}
      \end{choice}

      \begin{choice}
        \solution{true}
      \end{choice}

      \begin{choice}
