Mark submission as correct or incorrect

Source: R/question_answers.R
mark_as_correct_incorrect.Rd

Helper method to communicate that the user's submission was correct or incorrect. These functions were originally designed for developers to create question_is_correct() methods for custom question types, but they can also be called inside the functions created by answer_fn() to dynamically determine the result and message provided to the user.

Usage

correct(messages = NULL)

incorrect(messages = NULL)

mark_as(correct, messages = NULL)

Arguments

messages

A vector of messages to be displayed. The type of message will be determined by the correct value. Note that markdown messages are not rendered into HTML, but you may provide HTML using htmltools::HTML() or htmltools::tags.

correct

Logical: is the question answer is correct

Value

Returns a list with class learnr_mark_as to be returned from the question_is_correct() method for the learnr question type.
