Method Detail

hasVariable

public boolean hasVariable()

Description copied from class: QuestionWithVariable

Whether this has a standard "answer" variable, i.e. whether the Question needs to call "getAnswer()" to load and save the answer. For example, headers do not have variables, short answers do. More complicated, AbstractQuestions should return false, despite having some variables -- they don't have any standard variables.

Specified by:

hasVariable in class QuestionWithVariable

Returns:

doQuestion

public void doQuestion()

Description copied from class: Question
