Downloading a file containing student statistics and responses for all problems in a given set

On the statistics page, it is possible to see statistics on each problem. By acting as each student, it is possible to see their individual responses to a question.

Is it possible to generate a file that would contain all responses for all students for all problems on a given assignment? This info must all be in the database, but I'm not skilled enough to know how to coax it out.

Thanks,

Adam

Not sure if this is quite what you want, but the "Show Past Answers" button can be used to get information about more than one student. If you view the past answers for one student, you will see at the top of the page that there is a form with the students name, the set name and the problem number. You can use "*" as a wildcard (and I think even regexp syntax as well) to view more than one student or more than one problem. Putting "*" in the student name and in the problem number will get you all answers for all students for all problems on the given set. The format may not be what you want, but it gets the information.

Certainly, the past answers page could be made more flexible and informative.
