Revision 2664 - Directory Listing
Modified Sat Aug 21 22:02:14 2004 UTC (8 years, 9 months ago) by dpvc

Added a file to perform WeBWorK-specific modifications to the
Parser/Value packages.  (I've tried to make these independent of
WeBWorK, so you can use them in other perl code if you want to.)

The parameters for fuzzy reals and some of the other parameters now
are taken from the pg->{ansEvalDefaults} values (as defined in
global.conf or course.conf).  More still needs to be done with this,
however.

Revision 2661 - Directory Listing
Modified Fri Aug 20 15:56:56 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

A number of fixes to make handing lists work better.  In particular,
you can now specify checks for whether the right kinds of parentheses
(or none at all) are used on the student's answer.  Some of the flags
for the list checker have been changed to accommodate this.

---

Revision 2660 - Directory Listing
Modified Fri Aug 20 15:52:32 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

A number of adjustments to get negative infinities to work better.
They used to be stored as separate Parser strings, but now they are
flagged versions of a single string.

All of the problems are really due to the fact that there is no
Infinity class in the Parser (only a Value version).  That should be
changed, but will require some work, and can be put off for now.

It would be best if the classes within the two packages would match up
nearly 1-to-1, but for historical reasons, they don't.  Since the
introduction of Real, String and Infinity classes to the Value
package, The Infinity class is the one main difference between the
two, and once that is fixed, everything needs to be looked over to
check for unnecessary complications due to the historical lack of classes
in one or the other package.

Revision 2658 - Directory Listing
Modified Fri Aug 20 11:17:06 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Make blank patterns be ^$ (which should never match) rather than empty
(which always matches).  this fixes a problem where if a context has
no functions, for example, the parser would attempt to create function
calls to a function named ''.

Revision 2657 - Directory Listing
Modified Fri Aug 20 11:13:51 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Handle trapped error messages that are not produced by the parser
error reporter (i.e., by bugs within the parser itself).  Also added
an error if implied multiplication is attempted when the operator for
it is not defined in the current context.

Revision 2653 - Directory Listing
Modified Thu Aug 19 17:31:18 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Fixed error with handling of +infinity and -infinity.

operators handle them).

---

Revision 2650 - Directory Listing
Modified Thu Aug 19 14:23:00 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Added Parser::Number::NoDecimals() function that causes the parser to
give an error message when the student types a decimal number.  This
means the student must enter fractions as fractions, or values like
sqrt(2) or pi/4 symbolically not numerically.

---

Revision 2649 - Directory Listing

---

Revision 2648 - Directory Listing
Modified Thu Aug 19 12:38:47 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

The answer checkers now work with subclasses of Formulas that are not
part of the Value:: package tree itself (we call Value::isFormula()
rather than checking the class directly).

I also removed the various cmp_* flags that stored method names as
they ended up not needing to be used (they were intended as a means of
overriding the default method names, but subclassing turned out to be
a better approach).

I moved some initialization of the answer checker out of the anonymous
subroutine that is installed in the checker and just have that
subroutine call the correct answer's main checker (which I renamed).

Finally, I changed the student_ans value to be an HTMLized version of
the student answer, since the student could include things like < in
his answer (e.g., for vectors), in which case his whole answer might
disappear.  I wonder if this couldn't be handled better at a higher
level, as it seems wrong to make the student_ans be HTML rather than
the parsed string.  I originally thought Problem.pm could do the
protecting of HTML special characters, but this won't work without
additional changes, since some answer checkers put HTML into
student_ans to mark sytanx errors in the student answer, and you DON'T
want to protect those HTML characters.  The student_ans field is
probably being misused in this, and there might want to be another
field that gets used by Problem.pm in place of student_ans (which can
be HTML protected) when it is non-empty; say student_HTML or something
like that.  The answer checkers could use that field if it wants to
add HTML to the student answer, and student_ans otherwise, with the
assurance that it's HTML characters will be protected.  That way, if a
second answer checker calls the first (like some list checkers do),
then the second checker doesn't have to worry about removing HTML from
the student ans, and doesn't ahve to wonder whether the student_ans
actually contains an error message or syntax markings rather than the
actual student answer.

---

Revision 2647 - Directory Listing
Modified Thu Aug 19 12:18:56 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Context() now accepts a reference to an actual Context object rather
than a name of a predefined context, and will switch to that.

---

Revision 2646 - Directory Listing
Modified Thu Aug 19 12:16:41 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Make it possible to create subclasses of objects in the value package
that are not actually in the Value:: package tree.  This makes it
possible to have .pl files (that are run via loadMacros) that create
new Value object classes that are local to the problem rather than
global to the system.  (With mod_perl, if a .pl file added to the
Value:: tree itself, the results would be persistent, and this could
adversely affect future problems processed by the same httpd child
process.  It could lead to "redefined subroutine" errors, or worse.)
This provides a safe way to extend the parser on a problem-specific
basis.

This technique is used in the line and plane answer checkers (coming
soon), for example.  If such a checker becomes widely used, it can
always be added into the Value:: tree at a later time.

---

Revision 2645 - Directory Listing
Modified Thu Aug 19 12:02:15 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Make sure equality always returns a defined value, and
put spaces around the equal sign in string output.

---

Revision 2644 - Directory Listing

Make sure loadMacros() doesn't try to load these files more than once.

---

Revision 2643 - Directory Listing
Modified Thu Aug 19 11:55:56 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Use the standard precedences rather than the experimental ones by
default.  The professor will need to specificaly request the
non-standard ones, for now.

---

Revision 2634 - Directory Listing
Modified Tue Aug 17 15:21:58 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Changed the string used for the student answer to be taken from the
unevaluated formula rather than the fully-evaluated one.  This leaves
constants unreplaced, for one thing.

Currently the parser combines constants automatically during the parse
[which should be controllable by a flag], so student answers that
produce numbers are fully evaluated at this point already, except for
constant substitution.  This could be changed so that even for
numberic results, the student sees the parsed expression (rather than
the numeric result), which might help them identify where they and the
parser differ in their interpretation.  It is still nice to see the
final computed result, however, but there is no place to show the
parsed input as well as the final result.  One solution would be to
add another column (wasting space).  Another would be to make the
value shown be "parsed-value = computed-value" when they are not the
same thing.  A bit ugly, but works within the current framework.

Revision 2632 - Directory Listing
Modified Tue Aug 17 12:05:18 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Fixed typo in name of random generator.

---

Revision 2629 - Directory Listing
Modified Tue Aug 17 02:01:27 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Fixed a number of minor problems with creating perl functions from
formulas (this is done automatically as part of the function answer
checker, so is showing up now that I have that checker in place).

Also improved error messages in the function answer checker, and fixed
a bug when students enter a constant list or union when the answer
checker expects formulas.

---

Revision 2628 - Directory Listing
Modified Mon Aug 16 21:41:05 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Allow parser "constants" to be (in reality) formulas.  That way, for
example, you can defined T, N and B to be the formulas for the unit
tangent, normal and binormal of a space curve (as functions of "t")
and the student can write anwers in terms of T, N and B (without
having to compute them).

You could have created FUNCTIONS T(t), N(t) and B(t), and added them
to the parser to get almost the same effect, but the students would
have had to include the "(t)".  (If you want that, go ahead and do it
that way.)

---

Revision 2627 - Directory Listing
Modified Mon Aug 16 20:22:16 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Removed unwanted side-effects of some type-match checks, and moved the
ignoreStrings flag so that it is available for the checkers of ANY type.

---

Revision 2626 - Directory Listing
Modified Mon Aug 16 19:44:26 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

One more fix for handling intervals properly (I think it's really
right this time).  Also, named constants that end in numbers will
produce TeX output with the number as a subscript (this was already
true for variable names).

---

Revision 2625 - Directory Listing
Modified Mon Aug 16 18:35:12 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Added string comparison to all Value object classes (to compare the
string value of an object to another string).

Overloaded perl '.' operator to do dot product when the operands are
formulas returning vectors.  (Part of the auto-generation of
formulas).

A few improvements to real and complex class output results.

Made Union class slightly more robust and removed need for makeUnion
method other than in the Union itself.

---

Revision 2624 - Directory Listing
Modified Mon Aug 16 13:44:45 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Added support for unorderd list or formulas with partial credit.
Fixed type mismatch reporting in formula answer checker.
Fixed an error with Unions producing incorrect perl versions under
some circumstances.

---

Revision 2622 - Directory Listing
Modified Sun Aug 15 22:46:57 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Created the first draft of the Parser's function answer checker.  Some
work still needs to be done, in particular, type mismatches are not
being reported, and lists are being processed only as ordered lists
with no partial credit.

This doesn't implement everything from fun_cmp.  In particular, there
is no support for parameter matching at the moment.  This will have to
be added, but I'm not quite sure how to do it when the function's
return value is not a real number (e.g., an interval).

On the other hand, this checker is more forgiving about domain errors:
if tries a point where the professor's function is not defined, it
ignores that one and looks for another (until it decides it can't find
one).  Once it has these points, it tries them on the student's
answer, and if the student's function is undefined, then the student
answer is wrong (since it is not defined somewhere that the
professor's funciton is).  This avoids the "Error evaluating student
function at ..." messages, which just confused most students anyway.

---

Revision 2621 - Directory Listing
Modified Sun Aug 15 17:05:41 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Improved error messages, particularly when the student enters a
formula in an answer that should be constant, and also for incorrect
answers in lists of answers.  There are a few other miscellaneous output
improvements as well.

---

Revision 2620 - Directory Listing
Modified Sun Aug 15 12:02:05 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Had to put back the global context variable after all.  :-(
It gets reset in Parser.pl, so it should be OK even with mod_perl.

---

Revision 2619 - Directory Listing
Modified Sun Aug 15 00:45:46 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Modified Context() function so that it no longer uses a global package
variable for storing the user's context table.

---

Revision 2617 - Directory Listing
Modified Sun Aug 15 00:13:38 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

The Union answer checker now uses the generic List checker, so that it
will be able to produce partial credit and hints about which Intervals
are correct.

---

Revision 2616 - Directory Listing
Modified Sat Aug 14 21:29:21 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Added an equality operator (not active initially) that can be used for
things like equations of planes and so on.  I'm working on the answer
checker for that.

methods of Value objects.

---

Revision 2611 - Directory Listing
Modified Sat Aug 14 15:59:35 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Revision 2610 - Directory Listing

The class file for the Value::String object.  (Forgot to add it before
the last commit.  Sorry!)

---

Revision 2609 - Directory Listing
Modified Sat Aug 14 13:54:52 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Added a String type to the Value package.  Mostly this is to make it
possible to generate an answer checker for it that uses the parser.
It also makes it more consistent for handling things like stringify,
especially when they are recursively called internally.

Added new default strings "NONE" and "DNE", since these get used a
lot.

Modified how the default parameters are set up for the answer
checkers, and how the answer checker reports the expected answer type
in type mismatch error messages.

---

Revision 2608 - Directory Listing
Modified Sat Aug 14 13:49:56 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Added Infinity function (similar to i and pi) for creating infinity
constants.

---

Revision 2607 - Directory Listing

Allow unary + and - to work on infinities.

---

Revision 2606 - Directory Listing
Modified Sat Aug 14 11:25:47 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Can now specify that the objects stringify themselfs in their TeX
forms rather than their answer-string forms.  This makes it easier to
use the objects in the text of a problem (without having to call ->TeX
explicitly each reference).

Use

       Context()->texStrings

to start outputting TeX strings, and

      Context()->normalStrings

to switch back.

---

Revision 2605 - Directory Listing
Modified Sat Aug 14 02:50:18 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Incorporated infinities into Parser package better.  They have been
stored as String objects (with extra data) in the parser, and I've
left it that way, but now they convert to/from Vallue::Infinity
objects correctly, and these are used for generating the output.

Also added the Infinity answer checker, and adjusted the error
messages produces by type mismatches in the answer checkers and
elsewhere.

---

Revision 2604 - Directory Listing
Modified Fri Aug 13 23:49:16 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

---

Revision 2603 - Directory Listing
Modified Fri Aug 13 23:01:07 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Added an Infinite object class for the Value package.  Still need to
add it to the Parser package.

---

Revision 2602 - Directory Listing
Modified Fri Aug 13 22:57:27 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Changed the way the parser checks to see if it is loaded.

---

Revision 2601 - Directory Listing
Modified Fri Aug 13 19:06:09 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Added ability to report incorrect coordinates in point and vector
answers, and incorrect endpoints and endpoint types in intervals.
Separated these kinds of checks from the typeMatch check, where they
didn't really belong.

Added ability to specify intervals and unions as strings in Interval()
and Union(), which makes it easier to make constants of these types.

There are still problems comparing intervals that contain infinities;
I really need to make the infinity object to solve this, so have put
off trying to fix that for now.

---

Revision 2600 - Directory Listing
Modified Fri Aug 13 14:39:16 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Handle list entries that are not Value objects better.

---

Revision 2599 - Directory Listing
Modified Fri Aug 13 14:19:23 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

The List object's answer checker is now considerably improved.  It
will allow you to specify an unorderd or ordered check, and whether to
print various kinds of hints for wrong answers.

The checker can return partial credit, but WW doesn't deal well with
this at the moment (some small changes to Problem.pm can take care of
that).  Partial credit should be based on $showPartialCorrectAnswers,
but it is disabled for now.

The list answer checker probably still needs some work, especially
with non-numeric lists.

---

Revision 2597 - Directory Listing
Modified Fri Aug 13 11:38:22 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Added answer checker for parallel vectors.
Added option to number checker to have it not report type mismatches
for the known strings (like 'infinity').  (Really need a class for
infinities, and a Value.pm class for strings.)

---

Revision 2596 - Directory Listing
Modified Thu Aug 12 23:11:32 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Have parser handle infinities better.

---

Revision 2594 - Directory Listing
Modified Thu Aug 12 20:17:18 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Fixes for handling intervals better.  In particular, deal better with
ambiguous situations, like (1,2) that could be a point.

You can use [a,a] to specify the single point a.  I'd like to make {a}
represent this (and maybe even {a,b,c} to form finite sets), but this
would interfere with the use of { and } as alternative parentheses.
(Does anyone really use these?)

Do we need a cross product for intervals (and sets) as a means of
representing regions in R^2 (or higher)?

---

Revision 2593 - Directory Listing
Modified Thu Aug 12 16:48:52 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

This is a preliminary attempt at adding answer checkers that use the
parser.  If you have a parser object (like a formula or a vector), you
can use the ->cmp method to get an answer checker appropriate for the
object.  For example:

	 Context('Vector');
	 $v = Vector(1,2,3);
	 #  print text of problem
	 ANS($v->cmp);

would produce an answer checker that matched against the vector <1,2,3>.
Most of the parameters are set in the Context, but additional ones can
be passed to the checker (this still needs work).

See the sample problems for more examples.

The checkers for Reals, Complexes, Points, Vectors, Matrices and
Intervals work pretty well.  The ones for List and Union objects need
more work, as they only do an ORDERED check at the moment (the student
answers must be in the same order).  This needs to be fixed.
The checker for Formula objects (which corresponds to fun_cmp) still
needs to be written.

---

Revision 2592 - Directory Listing
Modified Thu Aug 12 16:40:47 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

A number of small fixes.  Most were to fix minor bugs in string and
TeX output, particulary for the various list-based objects (like
vectors, intervals, etc.).  There were also some bug fixes in the
comparison routines.  Some additional checks were added for valid
intervals when the coordinates are formulas.

Revision 2579 - Directory Listing
Modified Mon Aug 9 21:38:01 2004 UTC (8 years, 10 months ago) by dpvc

Significant update to new parser.

New features include:

  Better control over format of vector output (you can now
    specify ijk-format rather than <...> format)

  "Fuzzy" reals, where the relations like == return true when the
    two values are "close enough".  (This is controlable using
    parameters similar to those used in NUM_CMP).

  The fuzzy reals are now used in vectors/points/matrices/complexes/intervals
    and so on so that their relations will also be fuzzy.  E.g.,
    (1E-13,2) == (0,3) will be true, and norm(Vector(0,1E-13)) will
    equal 0.

  The two main portions of the parser (the Parser and Value packages)
    now share a common context object for configuration purposes.

In order to make ans_array entries "sticky" I've had to change some stuff.
The answer labels for these entries are now put into $main::PG_FLAGS{ANSWER_ENTRY_ORDER} as an array reference in PG.pl.
In processProblem8.pl the labels are caught again in the subroutines logCourseData and encode_submitted_answers. It is important that
they're caught there rather than earlier because then the translator would think that every entry was it's own answer.
Professor Gage says that processProblem8.pl is no longer used in webwork2, and he says he'll fix this there.

Revision 1294 - Directory Listing
Modified Fri Jun 27 13:57:09 2003 UTC (9 years, 11 months ago) by lr003k

Added a vec_solution_cmp. Used for problems where the answer
needs to be v1_s*v2+t*v3 where v1,v2,and v3 are vectors. v1 has
to be a linear combination of the professors answer where the
first one has a nonzero coefficient. The others are a basis, and
are compared with compare_basis.

Revision 1123 - Directory Listing
Modified Wed Jun 11 15:28:47 2003 UTC (10 years ago) by lr003k

Ok, there is the ans_array_filter added which allows for the answer to be coming from the ans_array.

---

Revision 1122 - Directory Listing
Modified Wed Jun 11 14:54:27 2003 UTC (10 years ago) by lr003k

Added two methods for naming the blanks in ans_array. The names now have the format ArRaY3[1,0,2] (this would be the name of
the 3rd answer (it's taken from main::answer_count which is then incremented so the answer before it is AnSwEr2 and the
answer after it is AnSwEr4) and it would be the second matrix or vector in the answer ( I need to take multiple vectors for
things like basis cmp, so ans_array_extension puts the vectors in different locations) and the 0 and 2 are row and column in
that matrix or vector.

Revision 1121 - Directory Listing
Modified Wed Jun 11 14:47:59 2003 UTC (10 years ago) by lr003k

I removed the subroutine answer_matrix since it really belongs in basic macros with the other answer blank methods.

---

Revision 1120 - Directory Listing
Modified Wed Jun 11 14:46:35 2003 UTC (10 years ago) by lr003k

I've added ans_array and ans_array extension and moved answer_matrix here since this is probably where it should be with all
the other answer blank methods. I still have to comment the code.

Revision 1117 - Directory Listing
Modified Wed Jun 11 04:00:37 2003 UTC (10 years ago) by gage

Added a feature to correspond to a change made in process_answers in Translator.pm.

 Each answer
evaluator is given the
answer AND the answer label (e.g. AnSWer1) of the answer.  The label
is placed in the answer hash at $hash{ans_label} for use by filters
that need to know the label of the answer they are evaluating.

ok, I'm pretty sure that this one is the one we want. Unfortunately the other one was an old one, that cmpl_cmp4 was not used
anywhere and I had removed it later, and this one has multi_cmp. Sorry for all the confusion.

Revision 1097 - Directory Listing
Modified Mon Jun 9 23:26:19 2003 UTC (10 years ago) by jj

Slightly better handling of top_labels in tth mode when force_tex is set; namely
it ignores the labels instead of letting the TeX code confuse tth so badly that
the matrix is basically lost.

Added > /dev/null tags to the commands which run tex and dvi for
HTML_img mode.  These will probably work now for the most part.
I don't know how well this will work if there is an error in
getting either tex or dvips to run.

For many problems using WeBWorK1.8 and typeset3 mode  thing work fine.
Please submit example problems where the images don't show up or some
other image related error occurs as bugs to
