Hi there 
so below is my script...I want the experiment to run all the blocks but to run them randomly.
I tried the “random” and “noreplace” function but it does not work as it does only choose randomly one of the two blocks, while I want it to run all the blocks but in a random order the only time it works is in the last option that I reported (with nothing in front) but the problem it will run the blocks in the order that I have written them which is not what I want as it needs to be random!
Please advice for help!


<expt>
/ preinstructions = (intro1)
/ blocks = [ 1=noreplace(1a,1b); 2= 6; 3=noreplace(2a_1, 2a_2, 2a_3, 2a_4, 2a_5, 2a_6, 2a_7, 2a_8, 2a_9, 2a_10, 2a_11, 2a_12, 5a_1, 5a_2, 5a_3, 5a_4)]
/ postinstructions = (end)
/ subjects = (1 of 2)
</expt>

<expt>
/ preinstructions = (intro1)
/ blocks = [ 1=random(1a,1b); 2= 6; 3=random(2a_1, 2a_2, 2a_3, 2a_4, 2a_5, 2a_6, 2a_7, 2a_8, 2a_9, 2a_10, 2a_11, 2a_12, 5a_1, 5a_2, 5a_3, 5a_4)]
/ postinstructions = (end)
/ subjects = (1 of 2)
</expt>
