by Cornmaster:
You can't tell, what you missed. That's part of the point. If it told you the right answers then you couldn't redo the test to get a better score. Most of the questions are Multi Answer....there are more than one right answer, with varing points.
No worries.
In the interests of helping improve CornMaster's excellent program, I've made some minor fixes & changes, which are explained in detail later in the post.
The brand-new Version 1.1 of the program now reports the missed questions, and also reports the 100% correctly answered (full credit) questions. In version 1.1, there are also a lot of relatively minor bug fixes, and even a "Cheat Mode".
Here is the new Version 1.1:

Version 1.1 Sample Output Notes:
All the question content, scoring, answers, etc. is unchanged. The Title line is added, and the "missed" and "Correct" lines are added.
If a number in parenthesis follows a question number in the "Missed" line, then it tells you the number of points you recieved. That answer was not 100% "Correct", so it reports the number of points that you got awarded for partial credit.
If a question number appears in the "Correct" line, then you got it 100% right, and got the maximum points for that question.
P.S., The Version 1.1 is released to Cornmaster, who may use, modify, improve, etc. it as he sees fit. Of course, anyone may download and and run it:
