The Question Engine 2 structure allows implementation of new features for numerical question types ( numerical and calculated).
The new question engine define a new rationale for classifying questions and there are possible conflicts between the new models and the numerical question type that is inherited from preceeding moodle versions mainly 2,0 and 1,9.

Raw numerical question
The simplest version of a numerical question is a question where
- The answer is defined as a numercial quantity that is written be the teacher following PHP valid syntax
- A response which is a numerical quanttity that is written be the student following PHP valid syntax
The grading is done allowing for a numerical tolerance that is set by the teacher following PHP valid syntatx.
The actual moodle numerical questions (1,9 , 2,0 , 2,1 ) differ from this simple model.
Such a raw numerical question is not user frendly as it necessicates that the student should know PHP numerical syntax
