Variable Numeric Sets question type

Question type for Moodle - for numeric questions with variable and expression
evaluation. All values are precalculated although a question can have several
variants with different variable values for each variant.

The question type was created by Jamie Pratt (http://jamiep.org/) for
the Open University (http://www.open.ac.uk/).

This version of this question type is compatible with Moodle 2.5+. There are
other versions available for Moodle 2.3+.

To install using git, type this command in the root of your Moodle install:
git clone git://github.com/moodleou/moodle-qtype_varnumericset.git question/type/varnumericset
Then add question/type/varnumericset to your git ignore.

Alternatively, download the zip from
https://github.com/moodleou/moodle-qtype_varnumericset/zipball/master
unzip it into the question/type folder, and then rename the new folder to varnumericset.

You may want to install Tim's stripped down tinymce editor that only allows the use of
superscript and subscript see (https://github.com/moodleou/moodle-editor_supsub).
To install this editor using git, type this command in the root of your Moodle install:

git clone git://github.com/moodleou/moodle-editor_supsub.git lib/editor/supsub

Then add lib/editor/supsub to your git ignore.

If the editor is not installed the question type can still be used but if it is
installed when you make a question that requires scientific notation then this
editor will be shown and a student can either enter an answer with the notation
1x10^5 where the ^5 is expressed with super script.
