Reverse pattern match question type

This question type was created by Tim Hunt just for fun.

The pattern match question type allows the teacher to grade sentences entered by the student using the pattern-match language. This question type does it backwards. The teacher provides some sentences, and says whether or not they should be matched, and the student has to come up with a pattern-match expression that does that. This question type is intended to be used to help people learn pattern-match syntax.

The pattern-match language is documented at http://docs.moodle.org/dev/The_OU_PMatch_algorithm

This question type is compatible with Moodle 2.4+.

To install the question type using git, type this command in the root of your Moodle install

git clone git://github.com/timhunt/moodle-qtype_pmatchreverse.git question/type/pmatchreverse
echo '/question/type/pmatchreverse' >> .git/info/exclude

Alternatively, download the zip from

https://github.com/moodleou/moodle-qtype_pmatchreverse/zipball/master

unzip it into the question/type folder, and then rename the new folder to pmatchreverse.

Note that you also need the pmatch question type installed:

git clone git://github.com/moodleou/moodle-editor_supsub.git lib/editor/supsub
echo '/lib/editor/supsub' >> .git/info/exclude
git clone git://github.com/moodleou/moodle-qtype_pmatch.git question/type/pmatch
echo '/question/type/pmatch' >> .git/info/exclude

or https://moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=qtype_pmatch

Once the code is in place, remember to visit the Site administration -> Notifications page to complete the install.
