For example, to automate averaging and to prepare data for statistical analysis, using an experimental paradigm for a number of subjects, a batch could have the following elements: | For example, to automate averaging and to prepare data for statistical analysis, using an experimental paradigm for a number of subjects, a batch could have the following elements: | ||

Once the batch is complete, it can run over all open files, over a user-defined file list (simply drag files into the list from Explorer), or just over the current file. Note that these batches are produced without entering any line of code by hand – it is all done using the graphical user interface of the Batch dialog. | Once the batch is complete, it can run over all open files, over a user-defined file list (simply drag files into the list from Explorer), or just over the current file.
