[solved] updating variable

  I'm sorry for the code format! I try again!

  Here it is the code I used to declared the variables:

  exp.set('acc_id1', 0)
  exp.set('acc_id2', 0)
  

  And this is the code I used to update the variables:

  err_corr = self.get('correct')
  if self.get('id') == '1':
      if err_corr == '1':
          exp.set('acc_id1', self.get('acc_id1')+1)
      else:
          exp.set('acc_id1', self.get('acc_id1')+0)
  else:
      if err_corr == '1':
          exp.set('acc_id2', self.get('acc_id2')+1)
      else: 
          exp.set('acc_id2', self.get('acc_id2')+0)
  

  I've also tried with:

  err_corr = self.get('correct')
  if self.get('id') == '1':
      if err_corr == '1':
          acc_id1 = self.get('acc_id1')+1
      else: 
          acc_id1 = self.get('acc_id1')+0
  else:
      if err_corr == '1':
          acc_id2 = self.get('acc_id2')+1
      else: 
          acc_id2 = self.get('acc_id2')+0
  

  but the result doesn't change....

  Hi Andrea,

  The problem is simply that you're comparing an int with a str. For example, Python will evaluate this as False: 1 == '1'. So the solution would simply be to compare err_corr to an int, like so:

  if self.get('id') == 1:
  

  Does that make sense? For more information about how OpenSesame deals with variable types, see:
