Can I presume that if you enter hawk then the output you get is:-
You code is doing what you are asking it to, but the issue (I presume) is a logical one.
You are checking if your input matches each of the items in turn, but you display the message every time. It would be better to define a flag/variable showing a failure before your loop then set the flag to a success within the loop if you meet the criteria. Then after the loop completes, you can display a message based on the flag.
Does that make sense? Sorry if it rather wordy.
Post your thoughts/next attempts and we can help with adjustments.

Hello,
I am trying to count how many times a subject makes a correct switch or a correct stay response in a simple task.

Hello,
I'm looking for an awk one-liner that prints the first two data fields, then contains a conditional where if $3>$4, it prints $3-$4. Otherwise, it prints $3. Example:

io::async::timer::absolute
IO::Async::Timer::Absolute(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation IO::Async::Timer::Absolute(3pm)NAME
"IO::Async::Timer::Absolute" - event callback at a fixed future time
SYNOPSIS
use IO::Async::Timer::Absolute;
use POSIX qw( mktime );
use IO::Async::Loop;
my $loop = IO::Async::Loop->new;
my @time = gmtime;
my $timer = IO::Async::Timer::Absolute->new(
time => mktime( 0, 0, 0, $time[4]+1, $time[5], $time[6] ),
on_expire => sub {
print "It's midnight
";
$loop->stop;
},
);
$loop->add( $timer );
$loop->run;
DESCRIPTION
This subclass of IO::Async::Timer implements one-shot events at a fixed time in the future. The object waits for a given timestamp, and
invokes its callback at that point in the future.
For a "Timer" object that waits for a delay relative to the time it is started, see instead IO::Async::Timer::Countdown.
EVENTS
The following events are invoked, either using subclass methods or CODE references in parameters:
on_expire
Invoked when the timer expires.
PARAMETERS
The following named parameters may be passed to "new" or "configure":
on_expire => CODE
CODE reference for the "on_expire" event.
time => NUM
The epoch time at which the timer will expire.
Once constructed, the timer object will need to be added to the "Loop" before it will work.
Unlike other timers, it does not make sense to "start" this object, because its expiry time is absolute, and not relative to the time it is
started.
