"""Inits the class.
Args:
mode (str): A string representing the mode of the question.
Eg., 'major' or 'minor'
tonic (str): A string representing the tonic of the question,
eg.: 'C'; if omitted, it will be selected randomly.
octave (int): A scienfic octave notation, for example, 4 for 'C4';
if not present, it will be randomly chosen.
descending (bool): Is the question direction in descending, ie.,
intervals have lower pitch than the tonic.
chromatic (bool): If the question can have (True) or not (False)
chromatic intervals, ie., intervals not in the diatonic scale
of tonic/mode.
n_octaves (int): Maximum number of octaves of the question.
valid_intervals (list): A list with intervals (int) valid for
random choice, 1 is 1st, 2 is second etc. Eg. [1, 4, 5] to
allow only tonics, fourths and fifths.
user_durations (str): A string with 9 comma-separated `int` or
`float`s to set the default duration for the notes played. The
values are respectively for: pre-question duration (1st),
pre-question delay (2nd), and pre-question pos-delay (3rd);
question duration (4th), question delay (5th), and question
pos-delay (6th); resolution duration (7th), resolution
delay (8th), and resolution pos-delay (9th).
duration is the duration in of the note in seconds; delay is
the time to wait before playing the next note, and pos_delay is
the time to wait after all the notes of the respective sequence
have been played. If any of the user durations is `n`, the
default duration for the type of question will be used instead.
Example::
"2,0.5,1,2,n,0,2.5,n,1"
prequestion_method (str): Method of playing a cadence or the
exercise tonic before the question so to affirm the question
musical tonic key to the ear. Valid ones are registered in the
`birdears.prequestion.PREQUESION_METHODS` global dict.
resolution_method (str): Method of playing the resolution of an
exercise. Valid ones are registered in the
`birdears.resolution.RESOLUTION_METHODS` global dict.
