KKran – Generate answer fields in tests and exams
A Lua- and TikZ-based package created for the Japanese education sector. It enables the arrangement of box-shaped answer fields in any desired combination using simple commands. It also facilitates the easy creation of multiple-choice answer sheets (mark sheets). Furthermore, it covers the functionality of toggling the display of model answers (solutions) via an option, and even the creation of grid-style answer fields (graph paper-like cells).
The package name originates from “欄 (:ran)”, which means “a small piece of area”, or “a small space”.
