I am trying to create a random question generator on perchance.org for practice in responding to french questions. I have a generator that selects questions from a list of questions (“outputa”) (https://perchance.org/4ewrtclbl5#edit).

For example, I have:

<h1>[title]</h1> <h2>[title2]</h2> <h3>[title3]</h3> <br> Select Random Question

<br><br>

<h4>[title4]</h4> <div>

[outputa] </div>

and defined the following:

title=Random Question Generator title2=Second Language Evaluation – Oral Language Assessment title3=French Level B & C title4=Question: title5=Des trucs et des astuces:

outputa //Decriver ou expliquer au present Où travaillez-vous? Où vous situez-vous au travail? Expliquez et précisez le rôle de votre ministère. Expliquez et précisez le rôle de votre direction. …

//Raconter au passé Comment votre travaille a affecté par la pandemie ? Durant votre carrière, qu’est-ce qui a été le plus satisfaisant jusqu’ici? …

This works well right now, but I would like to improve the generator to be more helpful. Essentially, within the list of questions, there are a number of different styles of questions (“Decriver ou expliquer au present”, “Raconter au passé”, etc.). Each style of question has a strategy to follow when responding to it, so I would like to add some standard text under the question to provide some tips for responding based on the type of question.

I was thinking this could be done by first randomly select a style of question from one list, and then based on the style of question selected, I could select a random question of that style, and then print the random question along with the standard text. Is there a straightforward way to do this?

Thank you in advance!!
