identifier needed for a combination/setting/configuration to group results #43

Open hendrikknoche opened 4 years ago

hendrikknoche commented 4 years ago

this could be a hash key from a combination of email current date, input device, input responder, and test type

or autonumber field from a database table (discuss with Hendrik) that tracks these different configurations.

So anytime any of the fields above change a new hash would be created. And the results to show would be based on these combinations rather than the individual runs we're showing right now in the RShiny app.

We need this to better group data for comparison between conditions.

i also posted it on the r shiny app (but should be addressed in the unity side) https://github.com/med-material/TunnelGoalFittsRShiny/issues/5

I think for the time being, we can also do group_by() with dplyr to achieve the same thing. or do it as post-processing in R.

yes, no problem. it's just a convenience. in general you'd want data key handles e.g. for drop down selections (they just deliver IDs for filtering and no text). That should simplify code and also result in clean database designs.
