Overview of response areas

List of response areas

The list of response areas is maintained in the Teacher section here. In the Developer area (here), the behaviour of the response areas is documented.

Data types when submitting empty responses (default behaviour)

If a user submits a response without inputing a value, the response areas convert the responses as follows before passing them to the evaluation functions:

Input Value Type Default Value Comment
number undefined [Behaviour needs updating]
string undefined [Behaviour needs updating]
MATRIX " " empty string in all cells
TABLE " " empty string in all cells
MULTIPLE CHOICE False all choices set to false
