How To Write Standard Problems

A simple format for writing non-clickable exam problem sheets with options and automatic answer keys.

exam problems markdown

Standard problems are for non-clickable practice sheets. They look different from quizzes and show the answer key at the end automatically.

Use this format when students should read the question and check answers later.

Syntax

{% capture exam_problems %}
Q: For a one-dimensional harmonic oscillator, the Hamiltonian is
A: $p^2/(2m)+kx^2/2$
B: $px-kx$
C: $mv^2+kx$
D: $p^2/m+kx^2$
ANSWER: A
SOURCE: GATE 2024 style
---
Q: If a coordinate is cyclic in the Lagrangian, its conjugate momentum is
A: zero
B: imaginary
C: conserved
D: equal to the force
ANSWER: C
SOURCE: CSIR-NET 2023 style
{% endcapture %}

{% include exam-problems.html source=exam_problems %}

Use --- between problems. ANSWER can be A, B, C, or D. The page automatically writes the final answer key as Answer: 1-a, 2-c, ....

SOURCE appears as a right-side tag in brackets, for example [GATE 2024 style].

Small Rules

• Keep each problem in the order Q, A, B, C, D, ANSWER, SOURCE.
• Use --- between problems.
• Write LaTeX normally using $...$.
• Use standard exam categories such as exam-misc, exam-quantum, or exam-electronics so the post appears in the correct Exam Notes block.
