Abstract

The paper deals with using formal languages in intelligent teaching-testing systems based on mixed diagnostic tests that allow to apply the test tasks with responses in the form of formulas. A simple intuitive language for writing formulas is described. A technology is proposed to verify an answer-formula compliance with a formula given by the test developer. A checking algorithm uses the LL(1)-parser, Postfix Polish Notation string generator and an interpreter to calculate the answer-formula value for the prearranged set of input data.
