\section{Coding Templates and Auxiliary Files}

\vskip 0.2in

\vskip 0.2in
Template files that facilitate problem coding and improve the legibility of the
set source file are available. They have proven to be very useful for
multiple choice conceptual problem coding, coding problems with tables, labeling graphics in problems, etc. and can be expanded and modified to
suit a user's particular needs.  For more detailed information about these
templates, view the output of sets 3-18 in the {\sl nsc121s9} class folder (print out
or display on a web browser).
\begin{enumerate}
\item The {\sl /demolibrary/Tools} directory contains the following files:
\newline \begingroup\small \begin{verbatim}

GreekWeb           Numprob-withfig    StdMacros          lets_chem
GreekWeb2          Problem#           StdUnits           parProblem#
Numprob            StdConst           Stylefile-include

\end{verbatim}
 \endgroup
\normalsize
The files include some variable definitions that can be used to simplify 
problem-coding.  
\item {\sl /demolibrary/MCTools} directory
contains files that were written to simplify the coding of qualitative
conceptual questions, labeled graphics, changing variable answer questions into multiple choice questions for exams, etc. 
Answers types include T/F, matching, ranking, exam style, labeling, etc..
These are used to build new problems by posting the text of a template into a
new problem.  Note that
the code in {\sl exam1of8} can be pasted into a problem and edited to transform the single numerical answer format
into a multiple choice format with 8 choices.
  Listed on the next page are the templates included within the MCTools directory.

\item Note: The file {\sl teacher/CAPA5/nsc121s9/HWTop} contains  two lines  that should be edited. That part of the file is shown below.

 This file contains the header for
assignments or exams, as well as defining the variable {\em stdendline} (standard end line).
The file should be edited to reflect the name of the course, department, and 
University. Note that it is coded so that its information is not part of the
text sent to vt100 terminals as this would waste several lines on the screen
each time the first problem is displayed.
Thus the {\sl HWTop} file is imported in each set {\bf after} the {\sl StdMacros} file.
