Digit span test
Test how many digits you can remember in your short-term memory.
Settings
Depending on the selected mode, the target order, i.e. the order in which the symbols must be entered, changes:
- Forward (default) requires the symbols to be entered in the order in which they were shown.
- Reversed is the opposite of forward, e.g. "1532" should be entered as "2351".
- Ordered is the numbers in ascending order, e.g. "1532" becomes "1235".
