If both numbering series are using AUTOMATIC numbers then the code will pick up both patterns.

If the question number series uses manual numbering, the code needs to be adjusted for the particular pattern that identifies 'what constitutes a question'. Also the 'what constitutes a tool' needs a rigid pattern that fits your data sets.

The sample you provided was brief and the patterns the code looked for was consistent on the three items the sample contained. Real world documents from many authors are rarely like that.

You have a few options:
1. Provide samples which contain all the variations that the code has to identify
2. Modify the input files to match the patterns the code is looking for before running the code
3. Learn how to modify the code yourself - there are plenty of resources available
