Hello Miro
Not sure if this link will help, it has been very useful to me to see if my algebra expressions work and are compatible with moodle:
https://www.mathjax.org/
The live demo is where I try and test my expressions
Hello,
thanks for the hint, but it did not help. I need editor which controls parentheses, and notepad++ works well for that.
Example of the complicated expression for one of my calculated questions:
(4844/(7.55-log10(((1000*{p})/101325)*((4*(({n0A}-{nrA})/{n0A})*(({n0A}-{nrA})/{n0A})*(({n0A}-{nrA})/{n0A})*{n0A}*{n0A})/(({n0A}+{n0B}+(({n0A}-{nrA})/{n0A})*{n0A})*(1-(({n0A}-{nrA})/{n0A}))*({n0B}-{n0A}*(({n0A}-{nrA})/{n0A})))))))-273.15But anyhow, if someone could advice online editor checking parentheses in algaebraic expressions, I would be glad.
You may find formulas question type useful if you site admin can install it (https://moodle.org/plugins/qtype_formulas). You can just split the equation in any logical part as you like, and it is just like normal programming. For example:
frac = (n0A-nrA)/n0A;
ans = (4844/(7.55-log10(((1000*p)/101325)*((4*pow(frac,3)*n0A*n0A)/((n0A+n0B+frac*n0A)*(1-frac)*(n0B-n0A*frac))))))-273.15
No curly bracket is requred
Thanks for your hint,
but: https://moodle.org/plugins/qtype_formulas is for Moodle 2.7, 2.8, 2.9, 3.0 ... and we have 3.1, 3.2...

According our experience, Formulas is working fine with Moodle 3.2.2+
It seems that plugin info has not been updated.

Hi,
thanks, that is nice;
but according to our Moodle maintenance policy, the plugin has to have clear info about Moodle version to be approved for the installation by admin.
I (we) need fully functional plugin to ease the work with calculated questions.
