[NTG-context] how to compute the sum of numbers
Hello,
I'm preparing a simple template for exam tests. I have following commad.
\question{3}{text text text}
where firtst parametr stands for points.
I'd like to compute the sum of points to be used as Total points: xx
What is the correct approach to do that if I'm using MKII?
greetings Jan

Re: [NTG-context] how to compute the sum of numbers
Thank you,
I have an additional question. Is it possible to have the sum available
before the \question commands?
I mean
Total points: \the\totalpoints % or something like that
\question{5}{text text}
\question{3}{text text}
\question{1}{text text}
greetings,
Jan

This is what I would do (but I suspect Wolfgang can come up
with something cleaner):
\def\startquestions
{\newcount\totalpoints}
\def\stopquestions
{\expanded{\reference[totalpoints]{\the\totalpoints}}}
\def\question#1#2{\global\advance\totalpoints #1\relax #2\par}
\starttext
Total points: \in[totalpoints]
\startquestions
\question{5}{text text}
\question{3}{text text}
\question{1}{text text}
\stopquestions
\stoptext
