# The `exam` package
This is a simple package to typeset exams. With it, you can define exercises,
and items, each with a number of points.
A summary is then printed on the front page.
## Installation (Linux only)
#### Using `typship`
```bash
typship download -n local https://imsc.uni-graz.at/git/gjankowiak/typst-exam/
```
#### Manually
```bash
mkdir -p ~/.local/share/typst/packages/local/exam
cd ~/.local/share/typst/packages/local/exam
curl https://imsc.uni-graz.at/git/gjankowiak/typst-exam/archive/v0.1.0.tar.gz | tar zx --xform 's/typst-exam/0.1.0/'
```
## Usage
Writing an exam is now easy (see [API](#api) for all options):
```typ
#import "@local/exam:0.1.0": exam, exercise, exercise-items, mtext
#show: exam.with(
title: "Exam",
course-title: [Abstract Binary Computation & Elegant Finite Graphs],
institution: [Super University],
date: "1. January 1970",
course-short-title: "ABC & EFG",
course-code: "π",
duration-minutes: "90",
ask-trainer-name: false,
ask-group: true,
language: "en",
)
```
### Defining exercises and items
A new exercise can be started using `#exercise("title", nb_points)`, for example:
```typ
#exercise("Relations and their properties", 2)
Consider the relation $R subset NN^2$, defined as follows:
$ (x, y) in R #h(0.5cm) <==> #h(0.5cm) x + y #mtext[is odd]. $
Is $R$ reflexive? transitive? symmetric? antisymmetric?
```
On can also defined (sub-)items for the exercise using `#exercise-items(override_points:true, numbering:"a)", items)`,
where `items` is an array of `(nb_points, statement)`. By default, the number of points the exercise
is worth is recomputed as the sum of points for all items. This behaviour can be turned off by
setting `override_points: false`.
```typ
#exercise("Properties of functions", 3)
Let $f : (0, +infinity) (0, +infinity)$ with $f (x) = e^(-x)$.
#exercise-items((
(1, [Is $f$ injective?]),
(1, [Is $f$ surjective?]),
(1, [Is $f$ bijective?]),
))
#exercise("Logical operators", 3.14)
Consider the following truthtable:
#align(center, table(
stroke: frame(0.5pt),
columns: (auto, auto, auto),
align: center,
[$A$], [$B$], [$A or B$],
[1], [1], [1],
[1], [0], [1],
[0], [1], [1],
[0], [0], [1]
))
#exercise-items(override-points: false, numbering: "i)", (
(1, [Is the truthtable correct?]),
(1, [If not, fix it.]),
))
```
All together, this should output something like:

You can also [play with it](https://typst.app/project/rrQbGYoQ3pePdfSMl0tmv4) on the Typst Playground (you might need an account).
### Utilities
These are used in the example above.
- `mtext(str)` to typeset text within math mode using the default text font.
- `frame(stroke_width)` provides `stroke` for use in a `table`, horizontal lines only,
top and bottom lines are bold.
### API
```typ
#exam(
title: "%KLAUSUR or EXAM%",
course-title: [%COURSE_TITLE_FIRST_LINE% \ %COURSE_TITLE_SECOND_LINE%],
course-short-title: "%course-short-title%",
course-code: "%course-code%",
date: "%DATE%",
institution: smallcaps("NAWI Graz"),
duration-minutes: "%DURATION%",
ask-student-number: false,
ask-trainer-name: false,
ask-group: true,
instructions: none,
language: "de", // or "en"
font-size: 12pt,
paper-size: "a4",
exercise-numbering: "1",
)
