Implements an Anki-style spaced repetition scheduler for active recall prompts.
In a learning system that uses active recall,
learners are presented with a prompt and rate their ability to recall the corresponding information.
SpacedRepetitionScheduler recommends a time interval to wait before showing a learner the same prompt again, given
his/her history of recalling the information associated with this prompt and how well he/she did
recalling the associated information this time. The recommended time intervals for a given prompt will increase the more frequently
the learner recalls the information associated with a prompt.
SpacedRepetitionScheduler considers a prompt to be in one of two modes when making time interval recommendations: learning or review.
- In the learning mode, the learner must successfully recall the corresponding information a specific number of times with specific time intervals between recall attempts. After successfully recalling the associated information the specified number of times, the prompt graduates to the review state.
- In the review mode, the amount of time between successive reviews of a prompt increases by a geometric progression with each successful recall.
