QP Lang (Question Paper Language)

QP Lang is a custom markup language designed to create structured, reusable, and machine-readable question papers.

This project includes a C++ parser that reads QP Lang files and generates a clean, formatted question paper.

---

Purpose:

Traditional question papers are written in Word/PDF formats:

• No structure

• Hard to reuse

• Cannot automate

QP Lang solves this by introducing a structured format for writing questions, enabling:

• Reusability

• Automation

• Easy parsing

Example Input (sample.qp)

\question{Define velocity}
\marks{2}
\format{theory}
\difficulty{easy}
\options{None}


\question{Find acceleration when u=0, v=20, t=4}
\marks{4}
\format{numerical}
\difficulty{medium}
\options{None}

\question{How many newtons laws are there? }
\marks{4}
\format{MCQ}
\difficulty{easy}
\options{
    A. One
    B. Two
    C. there
    D. No Laws
}
\answer{C}
