<p>Created page</p>
<p><b>New page</b></p><div>== The String Class ==<br />
<br />
The String class adds the ability to have special words or phrases be recognized by the MathObjects library. The two pre-defined words are <code>DNE</code> (for "does not exist") and <code>NONE</code>. By default, strings are not case sensitive, so <code>dne</code> and <code>DNE</code> (and <code>Dne</code>, and <code>dNe</code>, etc.) are all considered to be the same thing. The allowed strings are part of the Context, and you can add your own (or remove the two pre-defined ones), and you can make case-sensitive strings if you desire. See the [[IntroductionToContexts#Context_changes_for_Strings| String Context changes]] section for details.<br />
<br />
$ans = String("DNE");<br />
$ans = Compute("DNE");<br />
<br />
$ans = Compute("DNE,NONE"); # a list of strings<br />
<br />
If a string answer is used where something other than a number could have been the answer (e.g., as a response to "At what points <math>(x,y)</math> is <math>\sqrt{x^2+y^2}</math> undefined?"), then you should indicate the type of answer that might be expected when you create the answer checker by setting the <code>typeMatch</code> parameter to an instance of that type. E.g.,<br />
<br />
ANS(String("NONE")->cmp(typeMatch => Point(0,0)));<br />
<br />
This will make sure that syntax checking and error messages are appropriate for the kind of answer that the student might submit.<br />
