Experiment Protocol

Please read the following protocol carefully so that you understand what will happen during the study.

Literal String Interpolation Experiment

String interpolation allows you to embed expressions into string literals, making it easier to include variables, expressions, or functions within a string. Similarily, concatenation enables you to joint strings together.

In this exercise, you will encounter different possible permutations of string concatenation and interpolation syntax. For simplicity the symbols "+" and "{ }" are used to denote concatenation and interpolation respectively. Your task is to select option 1, 2, 3 or 4 as quickly as possible to indicate whether you think the output is CORRECT. PRESS 1, 2, 3, or 4 on the keyboard to select the correct answer. To navigate to the next task, press the RIGHT ARROW KEY.

Study Information:

In this study, you will be reading code snippets that might not be tied to any programming language. You will be required to select the code snippet (based on syntax) that you think is correct. Try to solve as much of the given assignment as possible. Potentially, this can help to improve programming languages. Keep in mind that in this study we are investigating programming languages, not you or your programming abilities.

The Code Snippets:

The code snippets given to you may not be related to a particular programming language. You are to apply your previous programming experience to make a non-subject decision on which option from a list of 4 options is CORRECT. In order to do so, study the code snippets provided in each question and select option 1, 2, 3 or 4 as quickly as possible to indicate whether you think the output is CORRECT. No pressure, do not feel obligated to rush. You choice should be based on your best judgement

If you are not sure or do not know what to do, just try anyway.
