My code is here.
I am having issues with the ã character when filtering an amp-state.
I have two states, menu (which I cannot edit becaues is external and will come from a JSON API) and selection (updated with user's selection)
In the last line I want to filter the menu state with the two parameters that the user selects. However the ã character is not being recognize and is problematic. If I remove all the ã from menu state and then I filter by Impressao then it works. But unfortunately, the menu state is something I cannot change.
Thanks!
To solve this you can use bracket notation instead of dot notion in your expression, both will pass AMP validation.
<p [text]="'Length of filtered Array: ' + menu.array.filter(pos =>
pos.Tamanho == selection.Tamanho
&&
pos['Impressão'] == selection['Impressao']
).length">Length of filtered Array: ?</p>
Here's a working fiddle.

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 = ''
Given a loop like:
#For Each x In item.PostCategory
Dim cats = x.CategoryName & ", "
#Html.ActionLink(cats,
"PostsByCategory", "Posts", New With {.Category = x.CategoryName.ToSeoUrl,
.Page = Nothing}, Nothing)
Next
I need to remove only the last comma and space - everything I have tried removes the commas and spaces in the middle as well as the end. The loop renders categories and I want them separated by a comma and space but do not need or want the trailing comma and space. Each category needs to be a separate link so string.join won't work. I tried trim.substring - that removes the commas in the middle. TrimEnd did not work. I have searched and have not found a solution.
Instead of World, Science, - i want World, Science
You can try to check if x is the last item in PostCategory. If it is true, then append an empty string, else append comma and space :
Dim cats = x.CategoryName & IIf(x.Equals(item.PostCategory.Last()), "", ", ")
There's many different ways to solve this problem. You'll have to determine the best way. Simply, you can just not use a foreach and do a simple for instead. Then you can easily tell if you're on the last item by comparing the index with the count and conditional show or not show the comma based on that.
Alternatively, you can construct a list of the string values this code would otherwise render directly to the page and then use string.Join to join the list items separated by ", ". string.Join never appends the delimiter to the end, so that fixes your problem.
You could also go fancier with some sort of editor template or partial view or even create a HtmlHelper extension. If just depends on how you want to handle it.
No matter what language I'm using I always need to display a list of strings separated by some delimiter.
Let's say, I have a collection of products and need to display its names separated by ', '.
So I have a collection of Products, where each one has a 'name' attribute. I'm looking for some Rails method/helper (if it doesn't exist, maybe you can give me ideas to build it in a rails way) that will receive a collection, an attribute/method that will be called on each collection item and a string for the separator.
But I want something that does not include the separator at the end, because I will end with "Notebook, Computer, Keyboard, Mouse, " that 2 last characters should not be there.
Ex:
concat_ws(#products, :title, ", ")
#displays: Notebook, Computer, Keyboard, Mouse
Supposing #products has 4 products with that names of course.
Thanks!
you should try the helper to_sentence.
If you have an array, you can do something like
array.to_sentence. If your array has the data banana, apple, chocolate it will become:
banana, apple and chocolate.
So now if you have your AR Model with a field named, you could do something like
MyModel.all.map { |r| r.name }.to_sentence
#products.map(&:title).join(', ')
As #VP mentioned, Array#to_sentence does this job well in rails. The code for it is here:
https://github.com/rails/rails/blob/master/activesupport/lib/active_support/core_ext/array/conversions.rb
Saying that, its use of the Oxford Comma is questionable :-)
After having the unpleasant surprise that Comma Seperated Value (CSV) files are not necessarily comma-separated, I'm trying to find out if there is any way to detect what the regional settings list separator value is on the client machine from http request.
Scenario is as follows: A user can download some data in CSV format from web site (RoR, if it matters). That CSV file is generated on the fly, sent to the user, and most of the time double-clicked and opened in MS Excel on Windows machine at the destination. Now, if the user has ',' set as the list separator, the data is properly arranged in columns, but if any other separator (';' is widely used here) is set, it all just gets thrown into a single column. So, is there any way to detect what separator is used on the client machine, and generate the file accordingly?
I have a sinking feeling that it is not, but I'd like to be sure before I pass the 'can't be done, sorry' line to the customer :)
Here's a JavaScript solution that I just wrote based on the method shown here:
function getListSeparator() {
var list = ['a', 'b'], str;
if (list.toLocaleString) {
str = list.toLocaleString();
if (str.indexOf(';') > 0 && str.indexOf(',') == -1) {
return ';';
}
}
return ',';
}
The key is in the toLocaleString() method that uses the system list separator.
You could use JavaScript to get the list separator and set it in a cookie which you could then detect from your server.
I checked all the Windows Locales, and it seems that the default list separator is virtually always either ',' or ';'. For some locales the drop-down list in the Control Panel offers both options; for others it offers just ','. One locale, Divehi, has a strange character that I've not seen before as the list separator, and, for any locale, it is possible for the user to enter any string they want as the list separator.
Putting random strings as the separator in a CSV file sounds like trouble to me, so my function above will only return either a ';' or a '.', and it will only return a ';' if it can't find a ',' in the Array.toLocaleString string. I'm not entirely sure about whether array.toLocaleString has a format that's guaranteed across browsers, hence the indexOf checks rather than picking out a character at a specific index.
Using Array.toLocaleString to get the list separator works on IE6, IE7, and IE8, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to work on Firefox, Safari, Opera, and Chrome (or at least the versions of those browsers on my computer): they all seem to separate array items with a comma, irrespective of the Windows "list separator" setting.
Also worth noting that by default Excel seems to use the system "decimal separator" when it's parsing numbers out of CSV files. Yuk. So, if you're localizing the list separator you might want to localize the decimal separator too.
I think everyone should use Calc from OpenOffice - it asks when you open a file about encoding, column separators and other. I don't know answer for your question, but maybe you can try to send data in html tables or in xml - excel should read both of them correctly. From my experience it isn't easy to export data to excel. Few weeks ago I have problem with it and after few hours of work I asked a person, who couldn't open my csv file in excel, about version. It was Excel 98...
Take a look on html example and xml.
The simplier version of getListSeparator function, enabling any character to be a separator:
function getListSeparator_bis()
{
var list = ['a', 'b'];
return(list.toLocaleString().charAt(1));
}// getListSeparator_bis
Just set any char (f.e. '#') as list separator in your OS and try the code as above. The appropriate char (i.e. '#' if set as sugested) is returned.
Could you just have the users with non comma separators set a profile kind of option and then generate CSVs based on user settings with the default being commas?
Toms, as far as I'm aware there is no way of achieving what you're after. The most you can do is try and detect the user locale and map it against a database of locales/list separators, altering the list separator in the .CSV file as a result.
