Issues with value and saveInto parameter in a!checkboxfield()

In the code below, I am not able to save the selected values. If i am selecting multiple values for a single question than I am getting below error-

"Interface Definition: Expression evaluation error at function a!forEach [line 19]: Error in a!forEach() expression during iteration 2: Expression evaluation error at function a!checkboxField [line 27]: Rule 'l' has 1 parameters, but instead passed 2 parameters."

I had highlighted the code where the code needs some correction. NOTE- This code worked perfectly fine for a!RadiobuttonField() but not able to save values while using a!CheckBoxField()

a!localVariables(
local!question: /*calling QE rule to fetch the questions*/
local!option: /*calling QE rule to fetch the options*/
local!numberOfAnswers: 4,
local!correctAnswer: /*calling QE rule to fetch the correct Answer*/
local!selectedAnswer: rule!MWJ_MultiCorrectOption_SelectedAnswer(), ///// this code is written below.

),

{
a!sectionLayout(
label: "",
contents: {
a!forEach(
items: local!question,
expression: a!localVariables(
local!currentQuestion: fv!index,
{
a!columnsLayout(
columns: {
a!columnLayout(
contents: a!checkboxField(
choiceLabels: {
a!forEach(
items: enumerate(local!numberOfAnswers),
expression: index(
split(stripwith(local!option, "[]ZYWX:"), ","),
if(
local!currentQuestion = 0,
fv!index,
fv!index + local!numberOfAnswers * (local!currentQuestion - 1)
)
)
)
},
choiceValues: {
a!forEach(
items: enumerate(local!numberOfAnswers),
expression: index(
split(local!option, ","),
if(
local!currentQuestion = 0,
fv!item,

)
)
)
},
label: fv!index & ". " & fv!item,
labelPosition: "ABOVE",
value: local!selectedAnswer.SelectedAnswer[local!currentQuestion],
saveInto:
a!save(
local!selectedAnswer.SelectedAnswer[local!currentQuestion],
save!value
),
validations: {}
)
)

},
alignVertical: "TOP"
),

I had used index() here & now am able to select multiple answers for a single question but if i select the answer for another question than the first selected answer gets vanished. Is there any way to resolve this and store all the selected values in local?

updated code-

value: index(local!selectedAnswer.SelectedAnswer,local!currentQuestion),
saveInto: a!save(
                index(local!selectedAnswer.SelectedAnswer,local!currentQuestion),
                save!value
                ),

I suggest to follow a structured problem solving approach. Reduce the code to the bare working/non-working minimum to understand what is going wrong. Then fix it and build back up to the final solution.

I tried this same using a!map and it also worked perfectly fine.

a!localVariables(

  local!InputData: {
    a!map(
      Questions:"What is CDT",
      Options:{
        "a",
        "b",
        "c",
        "d"
      },
      Selected:null,
      CorrectAnswers:"b"
    ),
    a!map(
      Questions:"What is expression",
      Options:{
        "e",
        "f",
        "g",
        "h"
      },
      Selected:null,
      CorrectAnswers:"g"
    ),
    a!map(
      Questions:"What is Interface",
      Options:{
        "i",
        "j",
        "k",
        "l"
      },
      Selected:null,
      CorrectAnswers:"k"
    )
  },
  local!SelectedAnswers:local!InputData.selectedAnswers,
  /*local!CorrectAnswer:local!InputData.CorrectAnswers,*/
  /*local!Results:{intersection(local!CorrectAnswer,local!SelectedAnswers)},*/
  /*local!Score:length(local!Results),*/

  {
    a!sectionLayout(
      label: "Quize Paper",

      contents: {

        a!forEach(
          items:local!InputData,
          expression: {
            a!checkboxField(
              choiceLabels: fv!item.Options,
              choiceValues: fv!item.Options,
              label: fv!item.Questions,
              labelPosition: "ABOVE",
              value:fv!item.selectedAnswers,
              saveInto: {
                a!save(fv!item.selectedAnswers,save!value)
              },
              choiceLayout: "STACKED",
              validations: {}
            )
          }
        )
      }
    ),
    a!richTextDisplayField(
      labelPosition: "COLLAPSED",
      value: {
        /*local!Score*/
      }
    )
  }

)

I don't see any error for the above code, other than having no context of the answer.

Hello [mention:45ae49aa875e416b8065c5ac96706b40:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05]

Get the choice labels and choice values in a local. I would not recommend running it directly in the components.
Then when you have the code, please do post it here as Stefan has mentioned for a better readability.
