## The `rhythm` module

A simple rhythm exercise. Solfege will randomly generate rhythm patterns that the user should recreate by clicking on buttons.

Here is a minimal lesson file:

    header {
      module = rhythm
      version = "3.1.4"
      title = "Easy rhythms"
      rhythm_elements = 1, 2, 3, 4
    }

`visible_rhythm_elements`

  Define this variable if you want more rhythm elements that the one to be asked for. This variable must include both the rhythm elements defined in `rhythm_elements` and the extra elements. Example:

      rhythm_elements = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

`countin_perc`

  An integer value between 35 and 81, representing the percussion instrument used to give you the beat before the question. The default value is 80. Example:

      countin_perc = 35
