| Parameters : |
- win : None, False, Window instance
what window to use for refresh rate testing (if any) and settings. None -> temporary window using
defaults; False -> no window created, used, nor profiled; a Window() instance you have already created
- author : None, string
None = try to autodetect first __author__ in sys.argv[0]; string = user-supplied author info (of an experiment)
- version : None, string
None = try to autodetect first __version__ in sys.argv[0]; string = user-supplied version info (of an experiment)
verbose : False, True; how much detail to assess
- refreshTest : None, False, True, ‘grating’
True or ‘grating’ = assess refresh average, median, and SD of 60 win.flip()s, using visual.getMsPerFrame()
‘grating’ = show a visual during the assessment; True = assess without a visual
- userProcsDetailed: False, True
get details about concurrent user’s processses (command, process-ID)
- randomSeed: None
a way for the user to record, and optionally set, a random seed for making reproducible random sequences
‘set:XYZ’ will both record the seed, ‘XYZ’, and set it: random.seed(‘XYZ’); numpy.random.seed() is NOT set
None defaults to python default;
‘time’ = use time.time() as the seed, as obtained during RunTimeInfo()
randomSeed=’set:time’ will give a new random seq every time the script is run, with the seed recorded.
