 +In the matlab command window, to save time and keep inputs consistent look to keyboard shortcuts:
 +  * ''up arrow''key to pull previously run commands.
 +  * ''ctrl+left arrow'' and ''ctrl+right arrow'' move the input text cursor by word.
 +  * ''Shift+ctrl+left'' to highlight a word (and type over it to replace)

 +==== Practice Block ====
 +
 +The practice block ends when enough correct responses are registered in a row. The [[https://github.com/LabNeuroCogDevel/MMY4/blob/master/private/getSettings.m#L231|threshold setting]] is different for block types: 3 for pure blocks, <del>5</del> 7 for mix.
 +On 2026-08-18, the number of correct trials to quit the practice mix block was increased from 5 to 7 after noticing a randomly assigned first cog block of 5 trials could result in a participant never seeing a switch.
