To perform automated digit span tests to evaluate on working memory function, especially in cognitive / neuro research. Hope to reduce practice effects and eliminate the need to use clinical assessments in research settings. Requires Java 7 or newer. Note that this is a research tool, and was not intended (and not evaluated) for clinical assessment.

FINAL VERSION: If you want more features, download the source and hack it yourself.

Apologies to those who've asked for help and got no response -- I lost my password, and wasn't able to log in for years. THIS IS AN OLD PROJECT, started for practice, and can be buggy on some systems; the code is messy and the design may be simplistic in ways.
