Nested while loops for populating lists

kev_dent — Thu, 30 Nov 2023 17:02:45 GMT

I'm trying to use nested while loops to prepopulate a bunch of lists that subsequently go on to control the properties of the stimuli in an experiment.
Here is a version of the code I'm working with. I can't seem to get it to work. Am I doing something wrong?
Any suggestions welcome.

<expt main>
/ onexptbegin = [
    var Crotatet = 0;
    var Cemotion = 0;
    var Csaliency = 0;
    var CT2lag = 0;
    var CT1gender = 0;
    var CT2gender = 0;
    var CT1pos = 0;

    var Wrotatet = 0;
    var Wemotion = 0;
    var Wsaliency = 0;
    var WT2lag = 0;
    var WT1gender = 0;
    var WT2gender = 0;
    var WT1pos = 0;

    var tcounter =0;

    while (CT1pos <2);
    {
    WT1pos =     100*(CT1pos +3);
    CT1pos +=1;

    while (Crotatet <2);
    {
    Wrotatet =     30*(Crotatet -0.5);
    Crotatet +=1;

        while (Cemotion<3);
        {
        Wemotion =     (Cemotion +1);
        Cemotion +=1;

            while (Csaliency<2);
            {
            Wsaliency =     (Csaliency +1);
            Csaliency +=1;

                while (CT2lag<2);
                {
                WT2lag =     (CT2lag*500)+200;
                CT2lag +=1;

                    while (CT1gender<2);
                    {
                    WT1gender =     (CT1gender +1);
                    CT1gender +=1;
                    {
                        while (CT2gender<2);

                        WT2gender =     (CT2gender +1);
                        CT2gender +=1;
                        tcounter +=1;
                        list.rotatet.appenditem(Wrotatet);
                        list.emotion.appenditem(Wemotion);
                        list.saliency.appenditem(Wsaliency);

Thanks Dave.
I see where I was going wrong now.
The loops were only executing once since I didn't reinitialise to zero.
I scaled up the example and it works well.
I forgot to reset to zero since I am used to using for loops, is there any implementation of for loops in inquisit?

No, Inquisit 6 only has while loops.

You need to set c2 back to 0 before you enter the 2nd while loop. (Or after exiting it, doesn't matter in this case. Use whatever is clearer to you.)

Before entering:
[code]
// aim of the script to generate 16 trials that show the following sequences of numbers
// 1 1
// 1 2
// 2 1
// 2 2

// attempting to do this by programmatically populating lists

<text thetext>
/items=("1","2")
/select =list.anumber.nextvalue
/ position = (45%, 50%)
</text>
// stimulus 2
<text thetext2>
/items=("1","2")
/select =list.anumber2.nextvalue
/ position = (55%, 50%)

</list>

//loop through 2 states of c

RE: Nested while loops for populating lists

kev_dent — Thu, 30 Nov 2023 15:25:25 GMT

Dear Dave,
Here is a simple script to illustrate the problem I wish to solve.
In this example I wish to generate the text 1 1, 1 2, 2 1, and 2 2 over 4 trials in a row, with 2 numbers per trial.
I would like to do this by populating the lists in the script programatically rather than hard coding them.
I'm not a programmer and can't seem to get it working.
Can you help by showing me how to get the code below to work, then I can scale up to a bigger set of loops?
Thanks
Kevin

Already posted a version with at least the various syntax mistakes (statement terminators where none belong, misplaced curly braces) upthread. This runs and does something. Whether it does the inteneded things or whether you have logic bugs you need to work out first, I can't say.

Here is the full script, I am working with.
Basically, my goal is to use var type variables to populate a set of lists, these lists then will go on to control stimulus presentation.
Essentially the issue is that I can not get my code to populate my lists at all.
I copied the code from the programmers manual and can't achieve the same in my code.
Is there an example perhaps in the library that shows how to use var type variables to control stimulus presentation?
Thanks

Again, please comment your code. Specifically, the while() loops, since that is what you want help with
[/quote]

Syntax-wise, the whole thing is pretty broken. For example, you have a statement terminater after each while condition

[code]while (CT1pos <2);[/code]

No ; belongs there.

This whole section here is wrong:

So if you fix the broken syntax and other mistakes, the thing will run and do something with the lists, i.e. populate them.

Whether in the way you intended or not, I can't tell, since you have not laid out those things.

Here is the full script, I am working with.
Basically, my goal is to use var type variables to populate a set of lists, these lists then will go on to control stimulus presentation.
Essentially the issue is that I can not get my code to populate my lists at all.
I copied the code from the programmers manual and can't achieve the same in my code.
Is there an example perhaps in the library that shows how to use var type variables to control stimulus presentation?
Thanks
Kevin

Again, please comment your code. Specifically, the while() loops, since that is what you want help with
[/quote]

Syntax-wise, the whole thing is pretty broken. For example, you have a statement terminater after each while condition

[code]while (CT1pos <2);[/code]

No ; belongs there.

Here is the full script, I am working with.
Basically, my goal is to use var type variables to populate a set of lists, these lists then will go on to control stimulus presentation.
Essentially the issue is that I can not get my code to populate my lists at all.
I copied the code from the programmers manual and can't achieve the same in my code.
Is there an example perhaps in the library that shows how to use var type variables to control stimulus presentation?
Thanks
Kevin

Again, please comment your code. Specifically, the while() loops, since that is what you want help with
[/quote]

Syntax-wise, the whole thing is pretty broken. For example, you have a statement terminater after each while condition

[code]while (CT1pos <2);[/code]

No ; belongs there.

RE: Nested while loops for populating lists

[b]kev_dent - 11/30/2023[/b]
Here is the full script, I am working with.
Basically, my goal is to use var type variables to populate a set of lists, these lists then will go on to control stimulus presentation.
Essentially the issue is that I can not get my code to populate my lists at all.
I copied the code from the programmers manual and can't achieve the same in my code.
Is there an example perhaps in the library that shows how to use var type variables to control stimulus presentation?
Thanks
Kevin

Again, please comment your code. Specifically, the while() loops, since that is what you want help with

RE: Nested while loops for populating lists

kev_dent — Thu, 30 Nov 2023 13:02:33 GMT

Here is the full script, I am working with.
Basically, my goal is to use var type variables to populate a set of lists, these lists then will go on to control stimulus presentation.
Essentially the issue is that I can not get my code to populate my lists at all.
I copied the code from the programmers manual and can't achieve the same in my code.
Is there an example perhaps in the library that shows how to use var type variables to control stimulus presentation?
Thanks
Kevin

RE: Nested while loops for populating lists

Dave — Thu, 30 Nov 2023 12:46:19 GMT

[b]kev_dent - 11/30/2023[/b]
I'm trying to use nested while loops to prepopulate a bunch of lists that subsequently go on to control the properties of the stimuli in an experiment.
Here is a version of the code I'm working with. I can't seem to get it to work. Am I doing something wrong?
Any suggestions welcome.

<expt main>
/ onexptbegin = [
    var Crotatet = 0;
    var Cemotion = 0;
    var Csaliency = 0;
    var CT2lag = 0;
    var CT1gender = 0;
    var CT2gender = 0;
    var CT1pos = 0;

    var Wrotatet = 0;
    var Wemotion = 0;
    var Wsaliency = 0;
    var WT2lag = 0;
    var WT1gender = 0;
    var WT2gender = 0;
    var WT1pos = 0;

    var tcounter =0;

    while (CT1pos <2);
    {
    WT1pos =     100*(CT1pos +3);
    CT1pos +=1;

    while (Crotatet <2);
    {
    Wrotatet =     30*(Crotatet -0.5);
    Crotatet +=1;

        while (Cemotion<3);
        {
        Wemotion =     (Cemotion +1);
        Cemotion +=1;

            while (Csaliency<2);
            {
            Wsaliency =     (Csaliency +1);
            Csaliency +=1;

                while (CT2lag<2);
                {
                WT2lag =     (CT2lag*500)+200;
                CT2lag +=1;

                    while (CT1gender<2);
                    {
                    WT1gender =     (CT1gender +1);
                    CT1gender +=1;
                    {
                        while (CT2gender<2);

                        WT2gender =     (CT2gender +1);
                        CT2gender +=1;

(1) Please post code that actually runs, i.e. that includes all elements referenced in the code.
(2) When you say that code "does not work", you should first explain what the code is intended to do in the first place by commenting it properly. Then explain what, specifically, you think is not working properly.
