The three cups

Cup 1: Quick Sums

Quick Sums, Multiplication: steady mental arithmetic against a gentle clock. Sixty seconds; the first problem is 5 × 4.

Tip: A skipped problem costs less time than a long stare. Press OK and keep the rhythm.

Cup 2: Reaction Time

Reaction Time, Left or right: waiting calmly and moving the instant something changes. The first eight waits fall between 1.24 and 2.62 s.

Tip: In go-or-stop, wait for the word as well as the colour. A held tap on Stop is part of the score.

Cup 3: Light Trail

Light Trail, Medium: keeping an order of shapes and notes. The first trail is 3 steps long on 6 panels; each panel glows for 0.44 s.

Tip: Listen as well as look. Each panel always plays the same note, so a trail is also a little tune.

Every cup in set #103 has a fixed seed, so anyone who opens this set gets the same patterns, trails, sums and waits. Your own ticks and results are kept only in this browser.
