Preface

Audience

This book is written for anyone who wants to make an Internet-based experiment but who knows nothing about programming. It is a step-by-step guide that shows how to create online experiments using NeuroTask Scripting. With a few lines of easy-to-learn JavaScript, you can create complex experiments that instantly run on the Internet.

Typographic convention

Throughout the book, normal text is typeset in the font you are currently reading, but pieces of JavaScript are written in a different font, e.g., "This is a JavaScript text string, shown in a special font to make clear it is not ordinary text".
