Course: Programming a quick-quiz

Programming a quick-quiz

This Flash module is an ideal introduction to Actionscript programming helping you create your own true-false quiz.

Your task is to create your own four question quiz making use of Arrays and other Actionscript techniques.

Understanding Arrays

As you've hopefully found out, this exercise asks you to use something called an 'Array'. The Array contains the data for our quiz.
An Array is useful because we can add code to mess about with our questions. We can sort, edit, remove and jumble up the question data.

Consider the following questions:

In your opinion, what should a computer quiz do?
Can't we just type questions and answers into text boxes and display them on the screen?
What 'added value' does Flash offer? Why not just print questions on paper?
Who cares about the benefits of using an Array - why are they worth bothering with for an interactive quiz?

Are you sure you've thought about the questions above?
