An approximation of the appearance of the code, not the actual code

One of the brain gyms on cognitivelabs.com has been redesigned...so it matches with similar areas of the site, and the internal elements of the game are in accordance with the others with respect to speed, design, message, and external links, options-to-enlarge, and so forth as of the early hours this morning.

The executive function exercise of decision-making speed is one of the best holistic regimens for overall brain fitness: sensitive to changes in response time, choice, and also cognitive "load" placed on the frontal lobe and amygdala.
