The first of these functions can be the most challenging, while the second one is mainly used for plotting. The functions will be explained in a very general way to help developers acquire basic knowledge leading to the creation of items. After that, it is recommended that a thorough understanding of the package is made by studying and using the parameters of each function (the so-called learning by doing). Two important steps to consider for automatic item generation are the following:
