Details

The program only checks the questions, not the answers. One could thus have several questions with the same wording, but different answers. I might change this in the future. Given the list of duplicated questions one should edit the original question bank files to remove them.

Examples

data(QBANK1)

###  force some questions to be duplicates:
QBANK1[[51]]=QBANK1[[25]]
QBANK1[[52]]=QBANK1[[12]]
QBANK1[[14]]=QBANK1[[4]]


DQ = DUPbank(QBANK1)
