A numerical question type for Moodle where one question can have several variants with different numerical values. These variants are given as a pre-defined list.

If the Superscript/subscript editor is installed then it can be used to let students enter their answer in scientific notation, which can be checked in the grading. However, this is optional.

The question type was created by Jamie Pratt (http://jamiep.org/) for the Open University (http://www.open.ac.uk/).
