Recording behavioral data

Behavioral Data should be recorded in a tab delimited file in a 'redundant' way, which will allow the most flexibility for later analysis, for example in statistical packages like R.

Namely, every variable that is ever manipulated in the experiment or related experiments should be given a column in a tab-delimited file. Each row should represent a single trial. Redundancy will occur because some variables will be the same for most trials.

Some examples are as follows.
