  34   * Question behaviour for interactive mode with count-back scoring.
  35   *
  36   * As an example, suppose we have a matching question with 4 parts, and 3 tries
  37   * (penalty 1/3), and the question is worth 12 marks (so, 3 marks for each part).
  38   * Suppose also that:
  39   *  - on the first try, the student gets the first two parts right, and the
  40   *    other two wrong.
  41   *  - on the second try, they are sure they got the first part right, so keep
  42   *    their answer the same, but they change their answer to the second part.
  43   *    They also get the answer to the thrid part right on this try, but still
  44   *    get the 4th part wrong.
  45   *  - On the final try, they get the first 3 parts right, but the 4th part still
  46   *    wrong.
  47   * We want to grade them as follows.
  48   *  - For the first part, they were right first time, and did not change their
  49   *    answer, so we credit that part as right first time: 3/3
  50   *  - For the second part, although they were right first time, they then changed
  51   *    their mind, an only finally got it right on the third try, so 1/3.
  52   *  - For the third part, they got it right on the second try, and then did not
  53   *    change their answer, so 2/3.
  54   *  - For the last part, they were wrong at the last try, so 0/3.
  55   * So, total mark is 6/12. (Really, a fraction of 0.5.)
  56   *
  57   * Of course, the details of the grading are actually up to the particular
  58   * question type. The point is that the final grade can take into account all
  59   * of the tries the student made.
