(f) Examples Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on examples shown in the drawings. This invention is not limited by this.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a word processor with a study function according to an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a character keyboard which is a character input means, and this keyboard 1 is arranged with kana keys and numeric keys. A key signal input by operating the keyboard l is given to the encoding circuit 3. The encoder circuit 3 is further supplied with key signals from the funxing keyboard 2. The keyboard 2 includes editing control keys, including a conversion key for instructing conversion of kana characters into kanji or sentences mixed with kanji, a no-conversion key for instructing that conversion to kanji is not necessary, and a previous candidate key. , cursor movement key, execution key,
It is equipped with a release key and special function keys for mode settings. The encoding circuit 3 encodes the key signals of the keyboard 1.2 and temporarily stores the character data (character code) in the input buffer 4, and also sends the encoded signals of each key included in the keyboard 2 to the central processing unit (CPU) 5. Enter directly into . The CPU 5 functions as an arithmetic processing means by executing an operation program to be described later, and has a kana-kanji conversion function, a writing function, and a continuous output function. CPU
5 has a CRT display and a printing device (printer) 7
is connected. The CRT display 6 is used to display kana sentences inputted in kana, converted kanji characters, and sentences mixed with kanji characters. The printer 7 is used to print sentences mixed with kana or kanji. Furthermore, a conversion processing section 8, a text data memory 11, and a kana-kanji conversion dictionary section 12 are connected to the CPU 5.

The conversion processing section 8 works together with the CPU 5 as a kana-kanji conversion means. The text data memory 11 stores, as text data, sentences containing kanji that are input from the keyboard and converted by the conversion processing section 8. Kana-kanji conversion dictionary section [2 is, for example, a memory dedicated to continuous output (ROM
), etc., and includes a storage area for storing a word dictionary, a storage area for storing a conjugation ending list, a storage area for storing an adjunct list, and the like. This word dictionary storage area stores kana headers arranged in alphabetical order, kanji notation parts corresponding to the kana headers, part-of-speech data, and the like. The kanji notation section stores word stems and unchanged parts.

The above configuration is equivalent to the configuration found in conventional word processors with a kana-kanji conversion function, for example. In the present invention, a study data processing section 9 is further connected to the CPU 5. The study data processing unit 9 processes the study data input into the text data memory [1] in the same way as normal texts, and stores it in C.
Display it on the screen of RT display 6. The study data processing unit 9 includes a start data number buffer 9&, an end data number buffer 9b, a data buffer 9C1, a correct data buffer 9e, and an answer data buffer 9e.

It includes an incorrect answer data number buffer 9f, an N counter 9g1, a question number counter 9h, a correct answer number counter 91, and the like. To briefly explain these functions, the inter-start data number buffer 9λ is a buffer for holding the input inter-start data number, and the inter-start data is displayed on the screen starting from the inter-start data corresponding to this number. The inter-end data number buffer 9b holds the input inter-end data number, and one display of the inter-end data is completed with the inter-end data corresponding to this number. Intermediate data buffer 9c is text data memory 11
Retains data while it is extracted from. The correct answer data buffer 10d holds the correct answer data extracted from the text data memory 11. The answer data buffer 9e holds answer data input from the keyboard l. The incorrect answer data number buffer 9f holds the number of the incorrect answer and erases the data number if the answer is correct for the open-interval data.

N counter 9g holds the data number as a count value while it is being displayed, and counts up when the answer to the interval is confirmed.
be done. The question number counter 9h accumulates the number of data items displayed. The number of correct answers counter 91 accumulates the number of correct answers.

The operation and operation of the word processor thus configured will now be described. First, in the normal kana-kanji conversion mode, a character string inputted by operation on the keyboard 1.2 is converted into kana-kanji, and as shown in FIG. is stored in

Next, in the study mode, study data is input by operating the keyboard 1.2 in the same way as the above-mentioned normal sentence data, converted into kana-kanji, and stored in the sentence data memory 11, but the structure of the study data is As shown in the figure, it is expressed as [interval data/n (tab control code)/correct data/- (line feed control code)], and this becomes one study data. In other words, one line of text data becomes one study data.

In this way, the study data is treated as text data under the control of the text creation program, so the study data can be input under the control of the text creation program, and moreover, it can be input from cassette tapes, floppy disks, etc. Data can be supplied.

Further, in this study mode, one of the following three courses is selected.

Course ■...Based on desired study data, the user inputs (answers) to (pauses) output in an interactive format. A correct/incorrect answer is determined, and when all questions are completed, the score is displayed.

Course■・・・・・・(Answer) to the display (pause)
think of. When the user operates the keyboard 2, the correct answer is displayed. The user checks whether the answer he or she has thought of is correct or incorrect and operates the keyboard 2 accordingly, and the score is displayed after all the questions are completed.

Course ■... Each time you operate the keyboard 2, (pause) and (answer) are displayed in sequence (the user can use it like a vocabulary book, for example).Next, each of the above courses The operation of the keyboard 1.2 will be explained with reference to the display on the CRP display 6. First, when the special function key of the fun key 2 is pressed, the screen of the CRT display 6 becomes a selection screen as shown in FIG. 5(a). Move the cursor to ``Study there'' and press the Enter key.

As a result, the screen becomes a problem range designation screen as shown in FIG. 5(b), and the desired problem range is set using the numeric keys on the keyboard l. Next, when the execution key is pressed, a selection screen is displayed as shown in FIG. 5(c). Then, move the cursor to select the desired course.

On the course selection screen shown in Figure 5(c), the course ■
When the cursor is moved to and the execution key is pressed, course 2 is selected and the 1st time start screen is displayed as shown in FIG. 6(a). So, when you press the execution key, the 6th
The first opening (gap) is displayed as shown in Figure (b). next,
When the execution key is pressed, an input screen for (answer) is displayed as shown in FIG. 6(c). Therefore, by operating the keyboard 1.2 and inputting the (answer) on the screen as shown in Figure 6(d) and pressing the execution key, it will be determined whether the inputted (answer) is correct or incorrect. The results are displayed for 1 second as shown in Figure 6(e). If the (answer) you entered is incorrect, please
As shown in the figure, a warning message "Incorrect" will be displayed.

Next, when the release key is pressed, the input screen for (answer) shown in FIG. 6(c) is displayed again, and it is possible to input (answer) again. Further, when the execution key is pressed, (correct answer) is displayed as shown in FIG. After checking the correct answer, press the execution key. If further study data is to be provided, the above operation is repeated. If you have completed all the questions and there is even one mistake, please do the following as shown in Figure 9.
The ``Time End'' screen is displayed. The score at the right end of FIG. 9 is calculated using the formula (number of correct answers/number of questions) x 100 (rounding off to the nearest whole number), as shown in the following example.

Example of how to calculate points (when the number of questions is 150) - 15th time
If you answered correctly for 80 out of 0, 80/150x100 = 53 points.If you answered correctly for 30 out of 70 on the second time, (80+30)/150x100 = 73 points, and the score is 0.
When the score is ~59, the mark shown in Figure 11 is displayed, and the score is 8.
When the point is 0 to lOO, the mark shown in FIG. 12 is displayed.

Next, when the execution key is pressed, the second start screen shown in FIG. 10 is displayed. In this case, when the release key is pressed, the screen returns to the course selection screen shown in FIG. 5(c). If you do not get all the questions correct after the second try, you can continue the third and fourth tries until you get all the questions correct. In this embodiment, after the 99th time, the process returns to the first time. If all questions are answered correctly, the screen shown in FIG. 13 will be displayed.

Then, by pressing the execute key, you can study again from the beginning. Also, if you press the release key, the screen shown in Fig. 5(c)
Return to the course selection screen shown in .

If you select course ■, move the cursor to course ■ on the screen in Figure 5 (C) and press the execution key. The message ``1st start'' will be displayed as shown in Figure 14 (a), and you will be able to proceed again. When the key is pressed, one frontage is displayed as shown in FIG. 14(b). The user thinks about the answer to the question and presses the execution key when the user knows the answer. As a result, the correct answer is displayed as shown in FIG. 14(c). The user presses the conversion key if the answer he/she thought of matches the displayed (answer), and presses the no conversion key if they do not match.

When the conversion key is pressed, a screen as shown in FIG. 15 is displayed, and when the no conversion key is pressed, a screen as shown in FIG. 16 is displayed. If more study data is displayed, repeat the above operation. If there is a mistake even after completing all the questions, the ``1st time over'' screen will be displayed in the same way as for course ■. The following steps are all executed in the same way, so the explanation will be omitted.

When course ■ is selected, the cursor is moved to course ■ on the course selection screen shown in FIG. 5(C) and the execution key is pressed. Thereby the 17th
As shown in Figure (a), the first interval (interval) is displayed.

Next, when you press the execution key, (
Answer) will be displayed. If there is further study data, press the execution key and a (pause) will be displayed. Repeat this operation until all questions are completed. When all questions are completed, the first
A message screen as shown in Figure 8 is displayed. Then, when the execution key is pressed, the first period (pause) is displayed as shown in FIG. 17(a), and the student can study from the beginning again. In addition, by pressing the release key, Fig. 5(c)
) Return to the course selection screen.

The operation of this embodiment will be explained below using the flowcharts shown in FIGS. 17 to 21.

However, in the flowchart, the course flag is
A flag that is turned ON when course ■ is specified on the course selection screen and turned OFF when another course is specified. This is a flag that is turned OFF when a course is designated, and the course flag is a flag that is turned ON when course ■ is designated on the course selection screen, and is turned OFF when another course is designated.

When a sentence of study data is input to the sentence data memory 11, the input start data number and end data number are held in the start data number buffer 9λ and the end data number buffer 9b (step 5OI-SO5).
). Next, the start data number is transferred to the N counter 9g. As a result, the study data number (line number on the text memory) to be displayed first is determined (step 5O6).

Then, the course flag corresponding to the course specified from the keyboard 2 is turned ON, and the other course flags are turned OFF.
It is turned FF (steps SO7 to SO5O9). Then, the incorrect answer data number buffer 9f, question data buffer 9c, correct answer data buffer 9d, and answer data buffer 9e are cleared. Note that the intermediate data buffer 9C, correct answer data variation 9d, and answer data buffer 9e are cleared each time the processing of l study data is completed (steps SIO to Sl+). Here, it is checked whether the N count value, that is, the data number to be displayed from now on matches the prespecified end data number, and if they match, the process enters the end process (step 512). Then, the N count value, that is, if the data number to be displayed from now on is not the data for which the answer was incorrect last time, the N count value is counted up, and the same process is performed again from step S12. Note that this process is configured to be jumped at the first time of studying (a flag indicating the number of times is provided and a judgment can be made based on this state) (steps S13 to S515).

The study data in the text data memory 11 is extracted only after the above processing is completed. Extraction is performed by searching the Nth line of data in the text data memory 11 indicated by the N counter 9g,
The data from the beginning of the line to the tab code is held as interstitial data in the interstitial data buffer 9c, and the data between the tab code and the line feed code is held as correct answer data in the correct answer data buffer 9d.
to hold. Thereafter, the data in the interval data buffer 9c is displayed as interval data. At this time, the problem number counter 9h is counted up and the number of tried problems is accumulated (steps S16 to S522).

Next, when an execution instruction is issued from the keyboard 2, the course flag is checked, and thereafter, processing is performed based on the check result (steps S23 to S524).

Steps 925 to S30 are the processing steps of course (■). When the answer input screen is displayed and answer characters are input from the keyboard 1, the character data is sequentially held in the answer data buffer 9e, and further execution instructions are given from the keyboard 2. If there is, the data held in the answer data buffer and the data held in the correct answer data buffer 9d are compared.

Steps 531-S35 are processing steps when there is a match as a result of the verification, and after displaying the fact that the answer is correct, the correct answer counter 91 is counted up to accumulate the number of correct answers. Thereafter, it is checked whether the count value of the N counter 9g, that is, the current data number is held in the incorrect data number buffer 9f, and if it is held, it is deleted. This erasing process erases the history of incorrect answers.

Steps S36 to S49 are processing steps when a match is found as a result of the comparison. The matching process in the previous step is not considered a match unless there is a complete match.

Therefore, even if the correct answer is r645J and the answer is "645", it is still incorrect. Therefore, this step is to ensure that the answer is correct even in such a case. As for processing, response data attributes (hiragana/katakana/alphanumeric/
The data portions having these attributes are converted into data with other corresponding attributes (katakana/hiragana/kanji numerals/alphanumeric characters), and the verification from step S29 onwards is performed again. If this is the correct answer, step S
31 and subsequent correct answer processing steps are entered. In addition, if there is no data corresponding to the attribute check in the answer data, or if the conversion of the predetermined attribute data results in an incorrect answer, an incorrect answer message is displayed, and when an execution instruction is given from the keyboard 2, an N count is displayed. After holding the value, that is, the current data number in the incorrect answer buffer, the correct answer data held in the correct answer data buffer is displayed. Note that if there is a cancellation instruction, it is possible to input the answer data again from step S25.

Steps S50 to S51 are processing steps after completion of correct and incorrect answer processing. When an execution instruction is given from the keyboard, the N counter 9g is counted up and the processing of the next study data is repeated from Sll.

Steps S52 to S64 are processing steps of step S12 when all study data have been processed. If the current course is ■■, calculate the score based on the count value of the number of questions counter 9h and the count value of the number of correct answers counter 91, and if the result is either 0 to 59 points or 80 to 100 points, Corresponding prescribed marks (Fig. 11, 1
If the score is 60 to 79, only the score is displayed.

After checking the scores in steps S65 to S70, when an execution instruction is given from the keyboard 2, a second start message is displayed, and when an execution instruction is given again, the inter-start data number buffer 9a holds it as in step 506. The time data number is set as the count value of the N counter 9g, the question number counter 9h and the correct answer number counter 91 are reset, and the study process is started again. Incidentally, if there is a cancellation instruction, the study process is ended.

Steps 571-S80 are unique to course ■,
If the course ■ flag is turned on in step S24,
Display the data held in the correct data buffer 9d,
If there is a conversion instruction from the keyboard 2 (operated when the considered answer is correct), a correct answer message is displayed and the count value of the correct answer number counter 91 is incremented. Furthermore, it is checked whether the value of the N counter 9g, that is, the current data number is held in the incorrect data number buffer 9f, and if it is held, the data number is deleted. If there is a no-conversion instruction from the keyboard 2 (operated when the answer you thought was wrong), an incorrect answer message will be displayed, and the value of N counter 9g, that is, the current inter-data number, will be converted to the incorrect inter-answer data number. It is held in buffer 9f.

When the above processing is completed, the process enters step S50 and processes the next study data. Step S81 is for the special evening of course ■, and the course ■ flag is turned on in step S24.
If so, the data held in the correct data buffer 91 is displayed as correct data. When this process is completed, the program enters step S50 and processes the next study data.

(G) Effects of the Invention According to this invention, by equipping a word processor equipped with a character input keyboard and a kana-kanji conversion dictionary with a study function, an operator can create his or her own problems.
In addition, there is a function for entering answers to questions more accurately using the keyboard, and a function for simply checking the answers to questions, allowing users to select either one, allowing them to study efficiently according to their goals.
