This PG code shows how to put answer blanks into the limits of an integral.

PG problem file Explanation
DOCUMENT();
loadMacros(
"PGstandard.pl",
"MathObjects.pl",
"PGunion.pl",
);
TEXT(beginproblem());

Initialization: We need to include the macros file PGunion.pl.

Context("Numeric");

#
# display the integral nicely
#
if ($displayMode eq 'TeX') {
  $integral =
    '\[\int_{'.ans_rule(4).'}^{'.ans_rule(4).'}'.
         ans_rule(10).'\,dx\]';
} else {
  $integral =
   BeginTable().
     Row(['\(\displaystyle \int\)',
       ans_rule(4).$BR.$BR.ans_rule(4),
       ans_rule(10),
       '\(dx\).'],separation=>2).
   EndTable();
}

Setup: We define a mode dependent integral with three answer blanks.

Context()->texStrings;
BEGIN_TEXT
Set up the integral of \( x^2 \) from 1 to 3.
$PAR
$BCENTER
$integral
$ECENTER
END_TEXT
Context()->normalStrings;

Main Text: The problem text section of the file is as we'd expect. We insert the integral with answer blanks using $integral.

$showPartialCorrectAnswers = 1;

ANS( Real(3)->cmp() );
ANS( Real(1)->cmp() );
ANS( Formula("x^2")->cmp() );

ENDDOCUMENT();

Answer Evaluation: As is the answer.
