fb_name()

[txt, isOK]: fb_name(n, i, lon)

• txt feedback text
• isOK flag for test result
• n the names array (content of the names input field)
• i index of the contact/support object whose resolved reaction's name is to be checked
• lon list of allowed name strings, e.g. ["N_A","A","F_A"]

Source

This function checks only whether the name the student assigned to the reaction resolved at index i is one of the allowed names in lon - nothing else. It is deliberately kept separate from Feedback for "contact" (fb_contact()) / fb_bar_name() rather than built into them, so that a question can score and weight the naming convention independently from the geometric/physical correctness of the reaction.

fb_name() does not itself report "no reaction found" or "more than one reaction found": if n[i] is not a list resolving to exactly one load, it silently returns ["", false] with no feedback text. It is meant to be used alongside fb_contact() (or fb_bar()/fb_unidir()) on the same index, which already produces that feedback - fb_name() only adds the naming check on top, once a single reaction is actually resolved there. If there are multiple reactions at object i, the first one is checked.

Checks done by fb_name():

• Does n[i] resolve to exactly one load? (If not: ["", false], no feedback text - see above.)
• Is that load's name a member of lon? If not, the feedback names the offending symbol, e.g. "(A) ist kein passender Name".

fb_name(n,i,lon):=block([name,txt],
  name: none,
  if listp(n[i]) and  not emptyp(n[i]) then name: n[n[i][1]] else return(["", false]),
  if member(name,lon) then return( ["",true]) else 
    return([castext("\\({@name@} \\) ist kein passender Name"), false]) 
);

Typical PRT

Feedback variables:

obj: stackjson_parse(objects);
[text, isOK]: fb_unidir(obj, names, i_SB, "Pendelstütze B: ");
[textn, isOKn]: fb_name(names, i_SB, ["B"]);

PRT node

A separate node testing isOKn = true, with {@textn@} as its feedback - so a wrong direction/position (via fb_contact()/fb_unidir()/fb_bar()) and an unsuitable name are reported, and scored, independently.
