    2626== groupSize ==  
    27  - '''groupSize''' - [1-n] Integer field which determines the number of players in each group. The group size is determined by dividing the number of players 
     27 - '''groupSize''' - [1,n] Integer field which determines the number of players in each group. The group size is determined by dividing the number of players by groupSize.  
     28 - That is 
     29{{{ 
     30#!latex 
     31$\textrm{number of groups}=\frac{number of subjects}{groupSize}$ 
     32}}} 
     33 - The number of subjects must be evenly divisible by the number selected in groupSize. An error or other failure will ensue otherwise. For example if we start a game with ten subject, we must set groupSize to 1, 2, 5 or 10. Any other selection not evenly divisible will result in some sort of error or failure.

    2935== numGroups ==  
    30  
     36 - '''numGroups''' - [1,n] Integer field which determines the number of groups formed in the period.   
     37 - numGroups will work with a ragged number of subjects. For example, if we start an experiment with 10 subject and set numGroups to 3, this means ConG will create two groups of 3 subjects and one group of 4 subjects.

    3239'''Important Note - groupSize & numGroups can NEVER be used in the same period definition row''' - that is; if, for some reason you need to have both groupSize and numGroups columns in your game definition config file, in each row only one column may have a an interger, the other field must be blank.
