Displaying The Information Within An Array

[David McFarlane]

McGree,

I assume that "You made [...]" is text from your feedback Text or 
Slide object.  In that case you must learn that between the square 
brackets you must enter an "attribute reference", you may not use an 
actual variable there (an easy bit of confusion when coming to 
E-Prime from other programming systems).  So you will need to change 
your feedback Text or Slide to something like

You made [Hits] hits.
You made [Misses] misses.
You made [FalseAlarms] false alarms.

And then in script before your feedback Text or Slide you might do 
something like

c.SetAttrib "Hits", Hits(TrialNumber)
c.SetAttrib "Misses", Misses(TrialNumber)
c.SetAttrib "FalstAlarms", FalseAlarms(TrialNumber)

(Note, BTW, that variables and attribute references may have the same name.)

For more info, you might start with the Context Object topic in the 
online E-Basic Help.  In general, the online E-Basic Help is the real 
documentation for E-Prime.

Hope this helps,
