units.Rnw (5) downloads

Mario, thanks for your e-mail.

This occurs with numeric cloze items and only for the tth/ttm converters and not for pandoc. However, it was easy to add a workaround to avoid this also in the former case. If you install the current development version from R-Forge

install.packages("exams", repos = "http://R-Forge.R-project.org")

and then use the attached example .Rnw file:

exams2html("units.Rnw")
exams2moodle("units.Rnw", name = "units")

both should work as expected I hope.

First of all I would like to thank you for your work. This library is very flexible and useful and it has become an essential tool for my teaching

I am preparing a cloze-type exercise with single choice and numeric type answers. The problem arises with the formatting of the numeric answer. When I export the question to html or xml formats a new paragraph is always inserted after the answer. Let me give you and example with a short piece of the code:

The velocity is ##ANSWER1## m/s

In html format, the text after the answer (in this case “m/s”) is inserted in a new line below the rest of the sentence but I would like to show it in the same line. I only have this problem with html and xml formats. The pdf driver works well.

Could you give me any hint about how to solve it?

Thanks in advance.
