Announcement text given by the package's contributor:
- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------
This package is useful for the teachers of mathematics
who often work with large libraries of exercises of mathematics.
Assume that you have an input file
that specifies 16 exercises.
\begin{exercise}\label{ex:1}
This is the first exercise.
\end{exercise}
%
\begin{exercise}\label{ex:2}
...
On Tuesday, for e.g., you want to create a student test
that contains the first 8 exercises.
However, on Wednesday, you want to create another test
that contains the last 8 exercises.
You may think of a solution like this
\get{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8} % on Tuesday
\get{9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16} % on Wednesday
This package helps you.

ktv-texdata – Extract subsets of documents
The package defines an exercice environment which numbers every exercise, and a command \get to extract a collection whose argument is a comma-separated set of exercise index numbers.
While the package was designed for teachers constructing tables of exercises, it plainly has more general application.
