The interaction starts with a free text input, in which you can enter up to 5 daily tasks. Your answers are saved accordingly in text variables. Random variables then decide the order in which you should compare two of your tasks in terms of importance.
In this way, all possible combinations are played through. However, it is of course important that each comparison is only shown once. This is ensured by a Boolean (true/false) variable that jumps to true as soon as a comparison has already been shown before.
For each daily task, there is also a counter (i.e. a number variable) that records how often you have rated this task as more important than another task. This results in a priority list at the end.
To display the tasks graphically in the correct order, I added some JavaScript code.
