Is it possible to modify the probability of a variable to be run in an experiment ?

  I have an idea about how to do it but as i don't know how to code i can't make it happen

  my idea is to generate random numbers from 1 to 1000
  give at my target variable a random number

  for exemple 'target1_color' = 2

  attribute to numbers a color : (1,375) = white
  (376, 1000) = gray

  i don't know if this can work

  from random import
  print randtint (1, 1000)

  (1,375) = white
  (376, 1000) = gray

  search_canvas = items['target_position'].canvas
  search_canvas['target1']
  .

  from ramdom import

  search_canvas = items[var.target_dispaly]

  [var.color_x] = randtin (1,1001)

  if [var.color_x] < 376 :
  [var.color_x]= white

  else:
  var.color_x= grey

  Hi Paul,

  yes your idea makes perfect sense. Here some code that does the trick:

  import random
  
  num = random.randint(1,1000)
  if num<276:
      var.target_color = 'white'
  else:
      var.target_color = 'gray'
  # and later
  
  cv = Canvas()
  cv.circle(0,0,50,color=var.target_color,fill=True)
  cv.show()
  # and wait
  

  Does that make sense?
