Randomly selecting 2 words without replacement

[Ayse Selin Toprakkiran]

Hi everyone,

I am trying to create 2 global variables out of a list of 35 words (without replacement). In the current code, I can successfully choose 1 word from this list and create a global variable, using:

 var ethnicity = API.shuffle([...])[0];

 API.addGlobal({
            ethnicity : ethnicity});

Do you know how I could instead select two words to create two global variables? To clarify, we are trying to assign each participant to 2 groups out of 35 to ask them to rate their perceptions of these groups, so it's crucial that there's no replacement.

Any help would be very appreciated!

Hi Ayse,

To assign a condition you need a single value, rather than an array of 2. So I would just create two global variables, one for each condition e.g.,  var ethnicity1 = API.shuffle([...])[0];  var ethnicity2 = API.shuffle([...])[1];

Sorry,

I meant:  var ethnicity_arr = API.shuffle([...]);  var ethnicity1 =  ethnicity_arr[0];  var ethnicity2 =  ethnicity_arr[1];

That worked, thank you so much!
