Needed : A selection / compilation of Quiz Questions in FIN

[knight_travis]

I require a selection / compilation of simple quiz questions & answers, in FINNISH.

(a) I require 1500 of them. !!!

(b) The questions are MULTIPLE CHOICE (each question must have a choice of FOUR possible answers. And ONLY ONE answer must be correct!)

(c) The questions MUST STRICTLY adhere to the following format :

('question', 'answer1', 'answer2', 'answer3', 'answer4', 'correct_answer'),


This means : the question itself............followed by four possible answers........followed by the CORRECT ANSWER.

And, I require 1500 of these...........as follows :


('question', 'answer1', 'answer2', 'answer3', 'answer4', 'correct_answer'),

('question', 'answer1', 'answer2', 'answer3', 'answer4', 'correct_answer'),

('question', 'answer1', 'answer2', 'answer3', 'answer4', 'correct_answer'),

('question', 'answer1', 'answer2', 'answer3', 'answer4', 'correct_answer'),


etc, etc.


(d) Please notice the BRACKETS, COMMAS, and APOSTROPHES! They must be included exactly as shown here.

(e) The questions themselves should come from various fields : Sports, Music, Geography, Mathematics, Television / Movies, Politics, Entertainment.

(f) The questions can be random. BUT they must have ONLY ONE CORRECT ANSWER!

(g) The questions MUST be "concrete". This means : they must be the sort of questions, whose answers are INDISPUTABLE.

For example : "Mikä on maailman korkein rakennus ?"

This question is NOT ACCEPTABLE! Because, the answer is not "concrete". Today, the tallest building in the world is Building A. But, tomorrow, the tallest building could be something else.

Example : "Mikä on maailman suurin järvi ?"

This question is ACCEPTABLE, because the correct answer will never change. The world's largest lake today, will still be the largest lake for the next 100 years.


(h) Most importantly : the quiz is designed so that, the person has an average of 10 seconds to answer the questions.

This means : the questions must NOT be too complicated. They should be easy-enough to answer, and not require complicated "thinking".

However, they should not be too easy!!

For example : "Mikä on 2 + 2 ?"

This is NOT acceptable

But, on the other hand : "Mikä on : 34 + 5(12 * 20) - 200/7 " ?

Also, NOT acceptable.


This is where the true work comes in. You need to select questions which are not too easy, and not too difficult.........considering a time-frame of "10 seconds".

Moreover, bear in mind that : some people may resort to using Internet Search Engines to look for the answers! Which is why a time-limit of 10 seconds has been set.

The whole point behind the quiz is : if the person does not KNOW the answer, he cannot move forward.


(i) The correct answers must vary in position. This means : switching the locations of the correct answers among : A, B, C, D. For example, if the correct answer to the first question is "A".........try to make the correct answer to the next question as "C", etc etc

The bottom line : do NOT place the correct answers in the same place all the time. Mix them around...........switch them around.


(j) You may use either MS Word, or Wordpad.

DO NOT USE NOTEPAD !!!!!!!!


EXAMPLE QUESTIONS, in the required format (in English)

('What is the second-largest ocean in the world ?', 'Arctic Ocean', 'Atlantic Ocean', 'Indian Ocean', 'Pacific Ocean', 'Atlantic Ocean'),

('What is the world's fastest four-legged animal ?', 'Lion', 'Tiger', 'Cheetah', 'Gazelle', 'Cheetah')



(k) The deadline is : 11TH JULY, 2015 !!!!!

Sent an email.

But if you pay peanuts, you get monkeys.

Code: Select all

('What is the world's fastest four-legged animal ?', 'Lion', 'Tiger', 'Cheetah', 'Gazelle', 'Cheetah')

It's funny how your example has a clear syntax error. String is terminated after "world" and before the "s". Then "s fastest..." is an undefined keyword in your syntax, and your new next string is ", ".

I find it even funnier that you actually have the TIME to point such a thing out

Makes me wonder just how "busy" you are.

I don't find it funny at all. I'm extremely passionate about the following topics:
- IT (part of my my job)
- Making things break, and noticing when, where, and how things break (pretty much 90% of my job)
- Pointing out people's mistakes (part of my job)
- and, most importantly, being a very logical non-insulting as*hole to people.

So it's only natural that such silly mistake would catch my eye. It's not a question of time.. my brain is simply wired that way. Yeah, sure, you can try to deflect the incompetence and ineptitude and make this about my time, like a little teenage girl:
"OH MY GOSH! Like, do you even have a life? Oh mai gaawd!"

I also wondered why the program can't randomise the order that the answer string is displayed.

Hey, man! That would mean that the dude has to actually write the randomization logic and include the routine in his parsing procedure. Too much work! I mean, yeah, any half-decent programmer can do it in literally 3-4 minutes, but but.. *sigh*, my sarcasm pool has been depleted, you're absolutely right.

Why would someone do all of this for you, the poster?

Teenage girl, huh?

The "non-insulting" part of the self-description may be a nice intention, I'd personally work a bit more on its execution if I were you.

Should anyone not get my point (which I guess is likely, since my thinking is often a bit convoluted, I guess):
Hands down, I hear and read the "do you have a life" thing in about 90% from males, most of them grownups. Therefore, what is insulting to me, is to use "teenage girl" as counter-insult. Completely and utterly uncalled for by the circumstances IMO.

Edit: I'd like to add, that I am with Adnan on pretty much everything else in this thread. Not that it matters much though.

Like others, I miss the part, where you outline what you are paying. You may want to add such info.
