Hello, I’m trying to create a simple application that lets a user take  
a quiz with 20 or 30 questions. I want to keep a record of the  
questions they get right and wrong so at the end I can output  
something like “you got 90 % of level 1 questions correct, 10% of  
level 2 questions correct etc…” I was thinking about using two  
serialized columns like ques\_right, and ques\_wrong to mimic arrays  
then iterate through these at the end of the quiz. Does this sound  
like the best way to go, or is there a simpler way?? Thanks for any  
input
