Describe the bug
The are a few issues with logging data into log file:
- In peer instruction question regex-plus-alt-mc1, correct answers (0,2,4) are logged as incorrect: answer:0,2,4:no:vote1.
Example from my analysis:
-
Few answers had an empty slot, instead of the answer (I don't remember the precise question):
example: answer:None:no:vote1 -
In the last peer instruction question of the semester, vote2 wasn't recorded:
- A lot of messages in Peer Instruction chat from from the same person to the same person are recorded more than once:
In addition, there are empty messages recorded:

Research direction
Begin with the referenced logfile and the regex-plus-alt-mc1 peer-instruction case, then trace the logging paths for answers and chat messages. Check each reported symptom against a reproducible example; done means correct multi-answer and vote2 records, no None or empty messages, and no duplicate chat entries.
