Q-matrix is a M//x//N matrix, where M equals the number of questions in an assessment, and N equals the total number of concepts required for understanding all questions. The matrix element A[i,j] equals 1 if the i-th concept is required for correctly answering j-th question and 0 if the i-th concept is NOT required for correctly answering j-th question. Alternatively, matrix values can be not just {0,1}, but real numbers from the interval [0,1], describing the probability that a student who knows i-th concept will correctly answer j-th question. | Q-matrix is a M//x//N matrix, where M equals the number of questions in an assessment, and N equals the total number of concepts required for understanding all questions.
