I'm writing my feature file SpecFlow and I'm looking to use numbers as a just a description.
For example :
Given Site is displayed
When I check column1
And column2
Then values are correct.
However in the word column1, 1 is actually read as a parameter instead of a description and the method generated for the line is column(.*) instead of column1. And because of this, since I have another line for column2, only 1 method is generated for then "When" & "And" statement.
This is incorrect as I would need to check the elements for both column1 and column2. Is there a way for us to just use numbers as description in the feature file instead of parameters?
You can either modify the step definition or surround the column name in double quotes.
Option A) Modify the step definition:
[When(#"I check ([^ ]+)$")]
public void WhenICheckColumn(string columnName)
{
// Check the column
}
Option B) Surround column name in double quotes
Change the step itself:
When I check "column1"
Then change the step definition to:
[When(#"I check ""(.*)""")]
public void WhenICheckColumn(string columnName)
{
// Check the column
}

I have a "name" column in a table that contains a persons full name (ie. first+last name). The objective is to sort the column based on the person's last name first, then first name. My initial naive approach for the textsorter function was
function (a, b){
const aSplit = a.split(' ');
const bSplit = b.split(' ');
const aReverse = aSplit[1] + aSplit[0];
const bReverse = bSplit[1] + bSplit[0];
return aReverse.localeCompare(bReverse);
}
Unfortunately, some of the names I have to sort have extraneous spaces in them, potentially in either the first name or last name field. So I have to support this in my sorting.
I am currently only using the combined first+last name string for display and sorting but I have access to the seperate name strings as well as a preformatted lastname, firstname version. I'd like to attach either of these to the <th> tags as a data attribute or something like that and sort using that instead of the actual value but I'm not sure how to go about accessing those attributes from within the textsorter function.
Maybe try this - when you build the table HTML, add the last name + first name into a data-text attribute of the cell. Tablesorter will automatically use that attribute over the actual text within the cell. See textAttribute option to allow changing that attribute name.
I have a list of data with a title column (among many other columns) and I have a Power BI parameter that has, for example, a value of "a,b,c". What I want to do is loop through the parameter's values and remove any rows that begin with those characters.
For example:
Title
a
b
c
d
Should become
Title
d
This comma separated list could have one value or it could have twenty. I know that I can turn the parameter into a list by using
parameterList = Text.Split(<parameter-name>,",")
but then I am unsure how to continue to use that to filter on. For one value I would just use
#"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Table", each Text.StartsWith([key], <value-to-filter-on>))
but that only allows one value.
EDIT: I may have worded my original question poorly. The comma separated values in the parameterList can be any number of characters (e.g.: a,abcd,foo,bar) and I want to see if the value in [key] starts with that string of characters.
Try using List.Contains to check whether the starting character is in the parameter list.
each List.Contains(parameterList, Text.Start([key], 1)
Edit: Since you've changed the requirement, try this:
Table.SelectRows(
#"Table",
(C) => not List.AnyTrue(
List.Transform(
parameterList,
each Text.StartsWith(C[key], _)
)
)
)
For each row, this transforms the parameterList into a list of true/false values by checking if the current key starts with each text string in the list. If any are true, then List.AnyTrue returns true and we choose not to select that row.
Since you want to filter out all the values from the parameter, you can use something like:
= Table.SelectRows(#"Changed Type", each List.Contains(Parameter1,Text.Start([Title],1))=false)
Another way to do this would be to create a custom column in the table, which has the first character of title:
= Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "FirstChar", each Text.Start([Title],1))
and then use this field in the filter step:
= Table.SelectRows(#"Added Custom", each List.Contains(Parameter1,[FirstChar])=false)
I tested this with a small sample set and it seems to be running fine. You can test both and see if it helps with the performance. If you are still facing performance issues, it would probably be easier if you can share the pbix file.
This seems to work fairly well:
= List.Select(Source[Title], each Text.Contains(Parameter1,Text.Start(_,1))=false)
Replace Source with the name of your table and Parameter1 with the name of your Parameter.
I'm using SPSS modeler and I have a variable that the software recognizes as numeric. So the missing values are $null$. I want that the missing values of the variable are selectionable with '', as character.
So I would: or trasform the format of the variable from numeric to character or change only the missing values from $null$ to ''.
How can I fix?
thanks in advance
The best way to select null values in a numeric field is to use the #NULL() function from the Blanks and Null section of the Expression Builder.
For example, if you wanted to keep only the null values so that you could inspect them, you might use a Select node. Leave the radio button set as Include. Press the Expression Builder (calculator) button. Change the filter in the drop menu on the left side from General Functions to show Blanks and Null (press B 2 or 3 times). Double-click on #NULL(ITEM). Go to the right side and double-click on your numeric field name. Put a Table node at the end and run it.
Using Select #NULL in IBM SPSS Modeler
Another way to view just the null rows is to enter the #NULL(varname) function into the "Highlight records where" section of the Table dialog box.
"Highlight records where" dialog
When you run the table, any row that is true for this condition will be shown in red.
If you really need the variable to be a string, then use a Compute node to create a copy of this field under a new name and use the to_string() function in the Conversion section of the Expression Builder to change the type of the variable. Now you will be able to use the the Select node to grab "" as the missing value. Or you could use the Filler node to replace the column, but then you would not be able to compare before and after.
The dialog examples shown in this answer use this sample stream that is installed with your IBM SPSS Modeler software:
C:\Program Files\IBM\SPSS\Modeler\18.0\Demos\streams\featureselection.str
The easiest way to do it it's using the Fill node with the configurations:
A) FIELD
B) Condition = #NULL(#FIELD)
C) Replace by = ' '
This node will replace all $null$ for ' ' at the same variable chosen in option a.
I don't think you can customize how you visualize $nulls. (I know it's possible in SQL db though)
So I'd suggest that you work with the numbers and when you want to visualize or export the results, then turn the field to a string one then replace nulls:
Filled node > to_string(#FIELD)
Filler node > blank and nulls > #FIELD = ''
I have a field which value is an array of strings.
Example: Mom, dad, son, etc.
It is possible to repeat a link with those values?
Example:
Mom
dad
son
And when I click on the link to have a href=www."fieldvalue".com.
EDIT: it is not vector, it is Array.
Create your repeat control. For the value add in your field name. Something like :
document1.getItemValue("myMultiValueField")
I THINK that should repeat your field assuming it is a real multi-value. The comma deliminated string would require more work. So I'm not talking about that...
Make sure the collection name / var name of the repeat is something like "rowData"
rowData should then be a String.
Drop a link control inside the repeat.
Compute the label to be simple "rowData". (no quotes in the code)
Compute the URL - which I THINK is "value" in all properties of the link
That's just javaScript so you should be able to do something like:
return "http://" + rowData + ".com"
That's rough - you'll have to play with it but if I follow you correctly should work.
For a comma deliminated String... in the repeat control you'd need to use SSJS or #functions to break that into an array so the repeat can work on it.
In your repeat you'll need to map the value attribute to the Vector and set a var property, which is how you will reference each element. Note: a comma-separated string is a single value, and a repeat requires multiple values. So you'll need to convert it to a Vector or some other multi-value object.
Within the repeat you can use any other control and compute the value as you would elsewhere. To access each element in your repeat control's source (i.e. each String in your Vector, in this case), use the variable name you've defined in the var property.
I have string "(1,2,3,4,5,6),(1,2,3)" I would like to change it to "('1','2','3','4','5','6'),('1','2','3')" - replase all parts that mathces /([^,)("])/ with the '$1', '$2' etc
"(1,2,3,4,5,6),(1,2,3)".gsub(/([^,)("]\w*)/,"'\\1'")
gsub is a "global replace" method in String class. It finds all occurrences of given regular expression and replaces them with the string given as the second parameter (as opposed to sub which replaces first occurrence only). That string can contain references to groups marked with () in the regexp. First group is \1, second is \2, and so on.
Try
mystring.gsub(/([\w.]+)/, '\'\1\'')
This will replace numbers (ints/floats) and words with their "quote-surrounded" selves while leaving punctuation (except the dot) alone.
UPDATED: I think you want to search for this
(([^,)("])+)
And replace it with this
'$1'
the looks for anything 1 or more times and assigns it to the $1 variable slot due to using the parenthesis around the "\d". The replace part will use what it finds as the replacement value.
