Can you tell me What is meaning of "linked"? <counter oddsa> / select = noreplace / items = (10, 20, 30, 40, 60, 70, 80, 90) </counter> <counter payoffa> / select = linked(oddsa) / items = (90, 80, 70, 60, 40, 30, 20, 10) </counter> By the way, I need a script that having computation role in screen, for example, the number or text " 4+5= " flashed in the screen, and then the subject can give the result "8" by the keyboard. Which friend have it? Many thanks. Best, Hehe

First, one of the items from oddsa is selected (randomly without replacement), e.g. 70. Because of the linked setting, the corresponding element from payoffa automatically gets selected, e.g. 30.
