1.4 raeburn 40: exams to individual students (e.g., to make sure Alice gets Alice's exam and
1.1 www 41: Bob gets Bob's exam.) So we have another mode, where we generate
42: different exam versions all of which have a 6-letter 'CODE' which
1.4 raeburn 43: control the random numbers. The generation and grading of these is a
1.2 www 44: bit more complex.
