The variables we've been talking about for sonifications in Build an Atom are:
- number of protons/neutrons/electrons
- net charge (+/- ion or neutral)
- stable/unstable
- mass number
Knowing the element name is good, but we don't necessarily need it for sonifications. I think we could technically calculate something like #2-4, but if you've got a variable tracking it already we can just use that.
This commit added ability to see 3 or the 4 values listed in the comment immediately above: https://github.com/phetsims/build-an-atom/commit/a8e404616a6dd2e76c1cfc112490c6cc8b4e673a.
Issue #107 is also about adding instrumentation, and is a more general version of this issue.
I've published a version that I believe has the instrumentation necessary to support the items requested in comment https://github.com/phetsims/build-an-atom/issues/140#issuecomment-265225202. That version can be found here: http://www.colorado.edu/physics/phet/dev/html/build-an-atom/1.3.0-phetiodev.1/
Assigning to @ariel-phet to determine whether we should test this before handing it over to Georgia Tech. It seems to me like some amount of testing would probably be good.
Yes, some testing would be good, please make a task, provide some context for QA and assign to me initially.
Task created, see https://github.com/phetsims/tasks/issues/748.
The testing has been completed. After talking with @samreid, I learned that I really should have done an RC and production version for sharing with GT (this is apparently our policy for sharing phet-io versions), so I went ahead and created these versions and had them sanity tested. The link has been provided to @emily-phet, and I will assign this to her so that she can either log any problems that arise once the GT folks start using it or close the issue if it meets their needs.
By the way, I'm not going to put the link to the phet-io version in this GitHub issue since the issue is visible to the general public and the link is intended to be hidden.
In a meeting with Brianna and others today, she expressed a need to be able to monitor the open/closed state of the accordion boxes. This capability has been implemented in the 1.4.0-phetio release, but that release is not yet fully tested and is therefore not yet a production release. I've let Brianna know about this and will provide her the production release when it's ready.
@jbphet can this be closed?
Sure. Closing.
