public class AnyN
extends AbstractExpression

The anyN operator takes one or more sub-expressions each with A base-type of boolean and single cardinality. The result is A single boolean which is true if at least min of the sub-expressions are true and at most max of the sub-expressions are true. If more than n - min sub-expressions are false (where n is the total number of sub-expressions) or more than max sub-expressions are true then the result is false. If one or more sub-expressions are NULL then it is possible that neither of these conditions is satisfied, in which case the operator results in NULL. For example, if min is 3 and max is 4 and the sub-expressions have values {true,true,false,NULL} then the operator results in NULL whereas {true,false,false,NULL} results in false and {true,true,true,NULL} results in true. The result NULL indicates that the correct value for the operator cannot be determined.

Specified by:
getClassTag in interface XmlNode
Specified by:
getClassTag in class AbstractNode
Returns:
QTI class name of this node

getMinimum

public java.lang.Integer getMinimum()
Gets value of min attribute.

Returns:
value of min attribute
See Also:
setMinimum(java.lang.Integer)

setMinimum

public void setMinimum(java.lang.Integer minimum)
Sets new value of min attribute.

Parameters:
minimum - new value of min attribute
See Also:
getMinimum()

getMaximum

public java.lang.Integer getMaximum()
Gets value of max attribute.

Returns:
value of max attribute
See Also:
setMaximum(java.lang.Integer)

setMaximum

public void setMaximum(java.lang.Integer maximum)
Sets new value of max attribute.

Parameters:
maximum - new value of max attribute
See Also:
getMaximum()

validateAttributes

protected ValidationResult validateAttributes()
Description copied from class: AbstractNode
Validates attributes of this node.

Overrides:
validateAttributes in class AbstractNode
Returns:
result of validation

evaluateSelf

protected Value evaluateSelf(int depth)
Description copied from class: AbstractExpression
Evaluates this expression. All children must be already evaluated. Contains no checks.

Specified by:
evaluateSelf in class AbstractExpression
Parameters:
depth - depth of this expression in expression tree (root's depth = 0)
Returns:
result of evaluation
