example(s)

@newTrial(
@  newText("q1", "What's up?")
@    .print()
@  ,
@  getText(q1)
$  .test.text( "Hi" )
@)

• Adds a text to the screen and then tests if it is equal to the string “Hi” .

  @Template( row => @ newTrial( @ newText(“sentence”, row.Text ).print() @ , @ newImage( row.Image ).print() @ , $ getText(“sentence”) $ .test.text( /\?$/ ) $ .success( newKey(“fj”).log().wait() ) $ .failure( newTimer(1000).start().wait() ) @ ) @) </code></pre>

• Prints a Text element named sentence onto the page using the text from the current table row’s Text column, and below it an Image element using the filename from the current table row’s Image column. Then, tests whether the text content of the sentence Text element ends with a ? character: if it does, the script waits for a keypress on F or J, otherwise it waits 1s before moving on to the next trial.
