mc.matrix

With the answer type mc.matrix you can arrange your multiple choice problem in a matrix layout.

012

Rows and columns can be permuted. That's optional, as are the title name for rows and the title name for columns.

  • \permuterows{min index}{max index}
  • \permutecolumns{min index}{max index}
  • \rowTitle{row title}
  • \columnTitle{column title}

The column labels are defined by the \tasks command. The labels are separated by a semicolon. As usual
you can write TeX, math, use variables and image references as a label.

\tasks{column 1 label; column 2 label; ...} e.g.

1
\tasks{$e^x$; some text; function $\var{f}$;\image{image lid}}

Each row is defined in its own environment.

1
2
3
\begin{row}
    ...
\end{row}

The row labels are defined by the \text command inside a row environment. As usual you can write TeX, math, use
variables and image references as a label.

\text{row label}
