Help for Previewing Answers
- Submit Answers: Clicking this button will submit your answers (as they currently appear in the input boxes) for verification. This is exactly the same as if you entered the answers in the original problem and clicked the Submit Answers button.
- Preview Answers: Clicking this button will submit your answers (as they currently appear in the input boxes) for previewing again. This is exactly the same as if you entered the answers in the original problem and clicked the Preview Answers button.
- The display: In addition to the submitted answers (which can be edited and resubmitted), various other information will be displayed such as error messages, the parsed answer, the value, and the typeset answer.
- parsed: This shows how WeBWorK intepreted your answer. For example, if you enter 2sin x, the parsed version is 2*sin(x) so this shows where WeBWorK assumes you want multiplication and function evaluation. If you enter 1+(2+3), the parsed version is 1+2+3. This shows that you really didn't need the extra parentheses. By looking at this, you can discover when you need to use parentheses and when you don't.
- value: This gives the value of a numerical answer. You can even use this as a "hand calculator."
