Then you could define the grading routine as follows:</p> <p>&nbsp; evalb(simplify($ANSWER-$RESPONSE)=0) and evalb(0=StringTools[Search](&quot;diff&quot;,&quot;$RESPONSE&quot;));</p> <p>Carl</p> <p>Hello,</p> <p>Yes, it is possible to disallow certain Maple commands in the answer by having Maple search the reponse string for those commands.</p> <p>For example, suppose you were asking for a derivative and wanted to disallow use of Maple's diff command.
