/**
 * Aiken format - a simple format for creating multiple choice questions (with
 * only one correct choice, and no feedback).
 *
 * The format looks like this:
 *
 * Question text
 * A) Choice #1
 * B) Choice #2
 * C) Choice #3
 * D) Choice #4
 * ANSWER: B
 *
 * That is,
 *  + question text all one one line.
 *  + then a number of choices, one to a line. Each line must comprise a letter,
 *    then ')' or '.', then a space, then the choice text.
 *  + Then a line of the form 'ANSWER: X' to indicate the correct answer.
 *
 * Be sure to word "All of the above" type choices like "All of these" in
 * case choices are being shuffled.
