An application for testing programmers contains an initial question version and newer question versions, represented by the following schema:
TABLE questions id INTEGER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY name VARCHAR(50) NOT NULL parentId INTEGER REFERENCES question(id)

See the example case for more details.
- Example case: Wrong answer
- Calling the procedure with the first question in the chain: Wrong answer
- Calling the procedure with the last question in the chain: Wrong answer
- Calling the procedure with the question in the middle of the chain: Wrong answer
