loadMacros(

  'MathObjects.pl',
  'contextLimitedPoint.pl',
  'PGML.pl',
  'PGcourse.pl'
);

TEXT(beginproblem());

Initialization: We only need to load contextLimitedPoint.pl if we want to prevent operations between points. 

Context('LimitedPoint');

$f = Compute('x^2-1');

$xint = List( Point('(1,0)'), Point('(-1,0)') );
$yint = List( Point('(0,-1)') );

Setup: We could have used Context("Point"); instead, which would allow mathematical operations between points (such as adding points as if they were vectors). The x-intercepts are clearly a list of points. We used a list with only one element for the y-intercepts so that a student who mistakenly enters two points will be told their second point is incorrect. If we did not use a list for the y-intercepts, a student who enters two points would be given an error message instead. 

BEGIN_PGML
Enter the [`x`]-intercept(s) and [`y`]-intercept(s)
of [` y = [$f] `].  Enter a point as [` (a,b) `],
including the parentheses.  If there is more
than one correct answer, enter a comma
separated list of points.

+ [`x`]-intercept(s): [_________________]{$xint}

+ [`y`]-intercept(s): [_________________]{$yint}

END_PGML

Main Text: Be sure to tell students the proper syntax for how to enter their answers.
