### Eqexam True False

I am trying to make a homework assignemnt with the very powerful Eqexam package. I was wondering how i would go about makeing a two part True False question with the following instructions:

In problems 1-22, answer true or false. If the statement is false, justify your answer by either explaining why it is false of giving a counterexample; if the statement is true, justify your answer by either proving the statement of citing an appropiate result in this chapter.

Hello,
I forwarded a copy of your post to Don Story, a former colleague, who wrote the eqexam package. The following code and reply are his. Tom
Attached are some suggested formats. I’m assuming the space for the extended response parts is included in the document; otherwise, you can just have the true/false questions, and say “On separate sheets of paper, justify your answers.”
