I would like to use mcexam to draw n questions from a bank of m > n questions.
I append an MWE showing a bank of three questions, from which I want to draw two; I indicate with comments the option I would like.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[output=exam
,numberofversions=1
,version=1
,seed=1
,randomizequestions=true
,randomizeanswers=true
,writeRfile=false
%,numberofquestions=2
]{mcexam}
\begin{document}
\begin{mcquestions}
\question Which of the below makes a balanced diet?
\begin{mcanswerslist}[ordinal]
\answer egg and bacon;
\answer egg, sausage and bacon;
\answer egg and Spam;
\answer egg, bacon and Spam;
\answer[correct] lobster Thermidor aux crevettes with a Mornay sauce, served in a Provençale manner with shallots and aubergines, garnished with truffle paté, brandy and a fried egg on top and Spam
\end{mcanswerslist}
\question Is this going to be on the exam?
\begin{mcanswerslist}[ordinal]
\answer Russell's antinomy
\answer Gödel's numbering
\answer Borges' library
\answer Smullyan's What Is The Name Of This Book
\answer[correct] all of the above
\end{mcanswerslist}
\question Have you ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?
\begin{mcanswerslist}[ordinal]
\answer Cesar Romero
\answer[correct] Jack Nicholson
\answer Heath Ledger
\answer Joaquin Phoenix
\answer Mark Hamill
\end{mcanswerslist}
\end{mcquestions}
\end{document}
Is there an approach now that's cleaner than that at How do I generate in LaTeX a list of random questions avoiding repetitions? (e.g. in LuaLaTeX)?
