| Mar 26, 2018 at 9:28 | comment | added | David Z | From a technical perspective, it is definitely possible to check the correctness of an answer like 20 km/hr even if it's all typed into a single text field. If the answer is supposed to be entered in those units exactly, then it's really just a string comparison; if not, it's easy enough to find code that will parse a value with units and compare it to a reference value (so an equivalent representation like e.g. 5.55555 m/s could also be accepted). Of course, the fact that it's technically possible doesn't really mean anything about whether it's good or bad UX. | |
