Overview

========

**Expyriment** is an open-source and platform-independent lightweight Python

library for designing and conducting timing-critical behavioral and

neuroimaging experiments. The major goal is to provide a well-structured

Python library for script-based experiment development, with a high priority

being the readability of the resulting program code. Due to the availability

of an Android runtime environment, Expyriment is also suitable for the

development of experiments running on tablet PCs or smart-phones.

**Expyriment** has been tested extensively under Linux and Windows and is an

all-in-one solution, as it handles stimulus presentation, the recording of

input/output events, communication with other devices, and the collection and

preprocessing of data. Furthermore, it offers a hierarchical design structure,

which allows for an intuitive transition from the experimental design to a

running program. It is therefore also suited for students, as well as for

experimental psychologists and neuroscientists with little programming

experience.
