Dear Stephane

In the apollo example, BW_simultaneous.r, can you please explain the need to use the following line of code (line 114):

choiceVar = 10*best+worst,

Shouldn't it be best + worst?

Is it because of the 10 choice tasks in the drug choice data?

this creates a new dependent variable.

So e.g. if best=1 and worst=2, then the combined b-w alternative will have the index 12

It has nothing to do with there being 10 tasks

Thanks for Prof. Hess for the explanation.
