Params

First argument is the string to have, or not have
Second argument is optional, and tells us whether yes or no
Third argument is the error message to produce (if any).

Returns

a filter ( a subroutine suitable for use in answer evaluators)

Examples

$new_eval->install_pre_filter(must_have_filter("sin", 'no', "can't use sin() in this answer));
