Random Question

Moodle 2.4

I created quiz with random question. I have big Question Bank and I made Question Bank and that is category wise.

Suppose Under Category Z two more Sub Category X and Sub Category Y has total 10 Questions if I took 2 questions from category Z then it randomly chose 2 out of 10 but I want it chose from any category but both question from the same category is it possible or not?

Purpose: Like Graph question we gave more than 1 question from one graph but from the random question it mix from more than one.

Is there any other way also to do?

So, if I understand you right, you want the question to either pull two questions from X or two questions from Y but not one question from X and one question from Y.

Tim might correct me but my understanding is that the random question will only pull from the category - so there is no way to do this without writing some code.  You might just have to pull directly from Category X or Category Y to keep your questions unified.  

The other thing you could do is to create a question that has both parts in it (kind of combine two questions into one using Cloze) and then just use Category Z to pull questions from.

First thank you for your reply...

I made X and Y category under category Z and select questions from Z so from both category question is taking out randomly.

Now I wish if question will take from category X then do not take from Y because in Maths we took minimum five question from One Graph so what I do for one graph I allotted one category. 

If you have any better idea then kindly share me (my all question is MCQ)

As stated before, you cannot set it up this way. 

I suggest just pulling from either Category X or Y to keep your questions together.

Or use the Cloze question to include graph and ask multiple questions about the graph (but you will not get randomization this way).

I do not think Cloze type will resolve my issue and I am not use too of that so I am pasting the sample what I want every question from 71 to 75 come in single page.

The cloze question will allow you to do this.  See instructions here:
