Hi,

I hope this scripts gets you started. In any case, you should check out our documentations and examples. So that you get more experienced with programming.

ms = Mouse()
cv = Canvas()
cv.text = "Click as fast as you can"
responses = []
t0 =cv.show()
while clock.time()-t0<40000: 
    button, pos, time = ms.get_click(timeout = 0)
    if button != None:
         responses.append([button,time-t0]) # store which key was pressed and the time since begin of trial
         # So to get the number of clicks, take the length of that list. Does that make sense

Does that make sense?
