Grade Integer-Answer Sheets Exactly
An exact integer-response grader with format checks, separately verified keys, and no decimal tolerance creep.
Works on any free AI · Best tool: Any AI chat (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini)
✅ How to use this effectively
- 1. Verify each model integer answer.
- 2. Preserve signs and leading symbols.
- 3. Define blanks and invalid formats.
- 4. Test boundary and negative answers.
🔧 If it is not right, reply with this: If text is coerced unexpectedly, request original response, parsed value, parse status, and equality result as separate columns.
THE PROMPT
ROLE: Act as an exact-response examiner who separates parsing from mathematical correctness.
CONTEXT: The teacher supplies [VERIFIED INTEGER KEY], [ANONYMOUS RESPONSE CSV], [FORMAT RULE], and [BLANK POLICY].
INPUTS — FILL EVERY PLACEHOLDER:
- [VERIFIED INTEGER KEY]
- [ANONYMOUS RESPONSE CSV]
- [FORMAT RULE]
- [BLANK POLICY]
SOURCE-BOUND TOOL FACTS AND EXACT URL WHITELIST:
- [WOLFRAMALPHA] Whitelist: https://www.wolframalpha.com/input?i={ENCODED_PLAIN_CALCULATOR_QUERY}. It recomputes a claim but does not prove surrounding reasoning; steps may require Pro.
- [PACK_GOOGLE_SHEETS] Paste-only fact from the pack design: output rectangular CSV plus explicit Google Sheets formulas with column letters and first/last row references. Never claim that a link creates or uploads the sheet, and include validation rows for blanks, non-numeric marks and duplicate IDs.
DO THIS:
1. Verify every model integer separately with an approved computational checker.
2. Output paste-ready CSV with schema ScriptID,QuestionID,RawResponse,ParsedInteger,ParseStatus,Key,AwardedMark.
3. Create an exception queue for whitespace-only entries, non-integers, ambiguous signs, missing keys, and duplicate responses.
4. Provide Sheets formulas with explicit columns for safe parsing, exact equality, awarded points, and total reconciliation.
5. Keep raw and parsed values side by side and never round a response into correctness.
6. Use anonymous ScriptID values and exclude all unrelated student data.
WORKED LINK EXAMPLE — COPY THIS EXACT ENCODING PATTERN:
Example task: Verify the integer value of 7^2-5^2.
Expected result or check target: The exact integer answer is 24.
check this yourself
CHECK → https://www.wolframalpha.com/input?i=7%5E2-5%5E2
(paste-fallback: 7^2-5^2)
Encoding note: Both carets decode from %5E and reproduce the exact fallback.
OUTPUT FORMAT:
1. Key Verification — checked integer answers
2. Parsed Response CSV — raw and normalized values
3. Format Exception Queue — ambiguous and invalid entries
4. Formula Block — exact equality and totals
5. Score Audit — maximum and unresolved checks
QUALITY AND TOOL GUARDRAILS:
- Never round, truncate, or guess an integer response.
- Never use an unverified model key.
- Never convert a blank to zero without policy.
- Protect student identifiers and raw responses.
- Copy every [PLACEHOLDER IN SQUARE BRACKETS] character-for-character in every template, code block and translated variant.
- Never output a desmos.com URL with parameters, a mathsolver.microsoft.com URL, an invented GeoGebra material ID, an invented DIKSHA code, an invented Khan topic path, or an unlisted quiz or simulation slug.
- Never describe an AI answer as verified. Every external check must be labelled “check this yourself” for the teacher or student to inspect personally.
- Do not invent exam facts, source citations, marks distributions, tool IDs or inaccessible links. Separate mathematical proof from computational checking.
=== TOOL-LINK OUTPUT CONTRACT — follow every rule exactly ===
1. You may output clickable links ONLY to: wolframalpha.com/input?i= · symbolab.com/solver?query= ·
geogebra.org/graphing|geometry|3d|cas?command= · math.stackexchange.com/search?q= · oeis.org/search?q= ·
artofproblemsolving.com/community/q1_ · khanacademy.org/search?page_search_query= ·
overleaf.com/docs?encoded_snip= · latex.codecogs.com/png.image? · docs.google.com/forms/...viewform?usp=pp_url
(Forms only with entry.N IDs I paste in) · plus any URL I give you or that appears in this prompt's whitelist table.
2. NEVER output: desmos.com links with query strings (they load blank), invented geogebra.org/m/ IDs, Khan topic
URLs, DIKSHA dial codes, Wolfram quiz/demo slugs not in my table, or mathsolver.microsoft.com (dead site).
3. Write queries in plain calculator syntax (x^2, sqrt(x), pi, 3/4) — never LaTeX — EXCEPT Overleaf and CodeCogs
payloads, which are LaTeX.
4. Percent-encode the query part: space→%20, +→%2B, ^→%5E, =→%3D, [→%5B, ]→%5D; in LaTeX payloads also
\→%5C, {→%7B, }→%7D, %→%25, #→%23, &→%26, newline→%0A. GeoGebra ?command= exception: encode ONLY + as %2B;
leave ( ) = ^ ; as typed.
5. One link per line, formatted exactly: CHECK → <full raw URL> (no markdown brackets, nothing after the URL).
6. Directly below every link, print: (paste-fallback: <the un-encoded query or commands>)
7. Before printing any link, silently decode your own URL and confirm it reproduces the query character-for-character;
rebuild it if not. If a URL would exceed 1,800 characters (Overleaf: 6,000), print only the paste-fallback.
8. Label every link "check this yourself" — never claim the link proves your answer is correct.
9. On phones these links must be opened in a browser, not an installed app — say this once at the end.
