@rpodcast @rweekly Thanks for the feature and the very kind words about #rexams, very much appreciated!

Quick comment about the "low-tech" format of written/scanned exams: These seem to be becoming more popular again because it's easier to control access to AI tools and prevent cheating etc.

Alternatively you can export R/exams also to learning management systems like Moodle, Canvas & Co. This also enables embedding individualized data sets for download.

I'm so tired of this ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

#StackOverflow "experts" closed _again_ a perfectly valid #rexams question...

...already edited _and_ answered by me

...pleading for feedback rather than closing in the comments

...to no avail. This is so frustrating. ๐Ÿ˜ญ
