[LON-CAPA-users] Is there an EXT for group membership?

Hi All,

I am looking at the wonderful examples page for the powerful &EXT() functions in Lon-Capa (https://s10.lite.msu.edu/res/msu/albertel/test/ext_examples.problem#0) but not seeing anything that would return the name of a group that the student is a part of. I've made use of the section information before and am wondering if there is no function that returns group membership or if it just isn't listed on this page?  I've tried (analogous to the section function)

$group=&EXT("user.course.grp");

and

$group=&EXT("user.course.group");

Is there something like this also in Lon-Capa or some other way to determine in the context of a problem if a student has been added to a specific group or not?

Thanks,
Doug
