Class: question_attempt  - X-Ref

Tracks an attempt at one particular question in a {@link question_usage_by_activity}.

Most calling code should need to access objects of this class. They should be
able to do everything through the usage interface. This class is an internal
implementation detail of the question engine.

Instances of this class correspond to rows in the question_attempts table, and
a collection of {@link question_attempt_steps}. Question inteaction models and
question types do work with question_attempt objects.

param: int $questionattemptid The id of the question_attempt to extract.

ensure_question_initialised()   X-Ref
This method is part of the lazy-initialisation of question objects.

Methods which require $this->question to be fully initialised
(to have had init_first_step or apply_attempt_state called on it)
should call this method before proceeding.

get_steps_with_submitted_response_iterator()   X-Ref
Allow access to steps with responses submitted by students for grading in a question attempt.

return: question_attempt_steps_with_submitted_response_iterator to access all steps with submitted data for questions that

Class: question_attempt_with_restricted_history  - X-Ref

This subclass of question_attempt pretends that only part of the step history
exists. It is used for rendering the question in past states.

All methods that try to modify the question_attempt throw exceptions.

__construct(question_attempt $baseqa, $lastseq, $preferredbehaviour)   X-Ref
Create a question_attempt_with_restricted_history

param: question_attempt $baseqa The question_attempt to make a restricted version of.
param: int $lastseq the index of the last step to include.
param: string $preferredbehaviour the preferred behaviour. It is slightly

Class: question_attempt_step_iterator  - X-Ref

A class abstracting access to the {@link question_attempt::$states} array.

This is actively linked to question_attempt. If you add an new step
mid-iteration, then it will be included.

__construct(question_attempt $qa)   X-Ref
Do not call this constructor directly.
Use {@link question_attempt::get_step_iterator()}.

find_steps_with_submitted_response()   X-Ref
Find the step nos  in which a student has submitted a response. Including any step with a response that is saved before
the question attempt finishes.

Called from constructor, should not be called from elsewhere.
