What is this symbol? - symbols

I'm currently unable to post images, sorry. It's a box with what appears to be an x in it, only the centre of the x is a box, and the bottom two legs of the x are smaller and vertical. I've tried reverse-image searching, but nothing's come up.
It looks a little like this:
___________
| _ _ |
| \ / |
| \___/ |
| |___| |
| | | |
|__________ |
But more like just a box with an x in it from further away.
Many thanks for any help.

Return MAX value with VLOOKUP from list

I have a Google sheet with data of different players attacks and their corresponding damage.
Sheet1
| Player | Attack | Damage |
|:------------|:-----------:|------------:|
| Iron Man | Melee | 50 |
| Iron Man | Missile | 2500 |
| Iron Man | Unibeam | 100 |
| Superman | Melee | 9000 |
| Superman | Breath | 200 |
| Superman | Laser | 1500 |
In my second sheet, I want to list each player and display their best attack and the corresponding damage. Like this:
Sheet2
| Player | Best attack | Damage |
|:------------|:-----------:|------------:|
| Iron Man | Missile | 2500 |
| Superman | Melee | 9000 |
I have tried to add the following in the damage column (third column) of Sheet2:
=MAX(IF(Sheet1!A:A=A2;Sheet1!C:C))
But I get 9000 for Superman and 0 for Iron Man. For best attack (second column) I guess MAX should be used together with VLOOKUP, but I don't know how to apply it.
Edit:
=ArrayFormula(MAX(IF(Sheet1!A:A=A3;Sheet1!C:C))) seems to fix the first issue. Getting correct values in the damage column (third column). But still don't know how to apply this to return which is the best attack.
You could use Filter.
Damage:
=MAX(FILTER(Sheet1!C:C,Sheet1!A:A=A2))
Then Best Attack:
=JOIN(",",FILTER(Sheet1!B:B,Sheet1!A:A=A2,Sheet1!C:C=C2))
The Join will join two or more if there are more attacks with the same damage.
I am considering the range A2:C.
Try this formula.
=sortn(sort(A2:C,3,0),9^9,2,1,0)

onClick: Load image in a random order of 10px blocks

jQuery
I was wondering is any has seen any code that can load up an image in 10px blocks or any size pixel blocks.
Think of it like a grid.
+----+----+----+----+
| | | | |
| | | | |
+----+----+----+----+
| | | | |
| | | | |
+----+----+----+----+
| | | | |
| | | | |
+----+----+----+----+
I want the image to fade in, fading each block in. Hopefully super fast except in some random order.
Do this on onClick or onHover. Then fade it out off hover or onClick again.
Here's a quick mock up for you:

Obviously it needs some polishing but it's a good start, I guess :)
Let me know if that helps!

How to map values within a data series to different y-axes?

I have a column chart in Highcharts that looks roughly like this:
| |
| |
S | |
e | | M
c | +-+ | e
o | +-+ | | +-+ +-+ +-+ | t
n | +-+ | | | | | | | | +-+ | | | e
d | | | | | | | | | +-+ | | | | | | | r
s | | | +-+ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | s
| |1| |2| |3| |1| |2| |3| |1| |2| |3| |
+-------------------------------------------------------------+
Fld A (s) Fld B (s) Fld C (m)
The labels "1", "2", and "3" refer to records; while "A", "B", and "C" refer to fields. So record #1 is represented as three separate values over fields A, B, and C, as represented by the labeled columns. I achieved this result by:
Providing an array to the series config option, one series for each record.
Providing an array to the xAxis/categories config option, one element for each field name.
Providing a 2-element array to the yAxis config option.
My problem is that values in field C will are shown on the Seconds axis, even though they are in units of Meters. I could change the entire series to be on the Meters axis (via the series/yAxis config option), but then fields A and B would show on the wrong axis.
Is there any way to map values within a series to different axes?
EDIT 9/12/2011: If this is impossible as stated, I'm willing to accept an alternate method, such as a different configuration or modifying Highcharts internals, via a plugin or otherwise.
EDIT 9/13/2011: I asked the same question on the HighCharts forum here: http://highslide.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=12315, and no one has answered it there either. I'm beginning to think there is probably not any easy answer. :)
A demo is available here: http://www.highcharts.com/demo/combo-dual-axes
chart.yAxis should be an array of two yAxis objects and your series object should specify the yAxis that it corresponds to.
A highslide support person told me this is not possible.
However, another person gave me a possible workaround: create a separate set of series for field C. Then set the values for fields A and B in the second set to null, and set the values in the first set of series for field C to null.
There is a link to a jsfiddle that demonstrates this workaround in the forum topic: http://highslide.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=12315

SPSS - Type of Question

I resolved the following question but
I have another issue. I would like to
analyse "Likert Scale" questionaire
which is measured 1 to 5 ( agree,
strongly agree etc ). I tried many
ways but I didn't combine all results.
Have you got any idea to analyze
likert scale?
Does anybody help us to define following type of question in SPSS variable view?
( looks like array question, user answers non unique which they can enter text )
QUESTION 1:
Allows a table of text inputs
+----------------------------------------------+
| Speed Design Accuracy |
+----------+---------+----------+--------------+
| Google | | | |
+----------+---------+----------+--------------+
| Yahoo | | | |
+----------+---------+----------+--------------+
| Bing | | | |
+----------+---------+----------+--------------+
I had the same problem. Fortunately, it is easy to solve ;)
If you have your data in the table - you have to "restructure" it (Menu - Data - Restructure). This option allows you to create multidimansional variables. You can find some tutorial on youtube for data restructuring.
In your case, you have to make it manually. You just repeat your identifying variable accordng to the amount of likert scale questions. Let's assume you have 3 questions to "Speed", 3 questions to "Design", and 3 questions to "Accuracy". Your table should look like this:
+----------------------------------------------+
| Speed1 Speed2 Speed3 | Duration1 | Duration2 | ...
+----------+---------+----------+--------------+
| Google | | | | | |
+----------+---------+----------+--------------+
| Yahoo | | | |
+----------+---------+----------+--------------+
| Bing | | | |
+----------+---------+----------+--------------+
You can restructure the data later to perform statistical analysis.
In the case of repeated measurement (e.g. you asked your Likert scale question in the same company 3 times over time), your table might look like this:
+----------------------------------------------+
| Speed1 Speed2 Speed3 | Duration1 | Duration2 | ...
+----------+---------+----------+--------------+
| Google | | | | | |
+----------+---------+----------+--------------+
| Google | | | |
+----------+---------+----------+--------------+
| Google | | | |
+----------+---------+----------+--------------+
| Yahoo | | | |
+----------+---------+----------+--------------+
| Yahoo | | | |
+----------+---------+----------+--------------+
| Yahoo | | | |
+----------+---------+----------+--------------+
| Bing | | | |
+----------+---------+----------+--------------+
...
I hope, it helped!
Best,
Eugene
I am not sure I know what you are asking, but I believe you are looking for some guidance as to what the "dataset" might need to look like. If you run the following syntax, you should get a better idea of how I would structure it.
DATA LIST LIST (",") / browser (A30) type (A30) score.
BEGIN DATA
Google, Speed, 123
Yahoo, Speed, 34
Bing, Design, 23
Google, Accuracy, 231
Yahoo, Design, 12
END DATA.
Likert scale data should be analyzed using non-parametric methods. Two ways to handle this.
1). Rank the cases and then perform ANOVA on the ranked values
2). Perform Kruskal Wallis on the Likert scale data

Is it possible to link to a bookmark within a PDF using URL parameters?

When providing a link to a PDF file on a website, is it possible to include information in the URL (request parameters) which will make the PDF browser plugin (if used) jump to a particular bookmark instead of just opening at the beginning?
Something like: http://www.somehost.com/user-guide.pdf?bookmark=chapter3 ?
If not a bookmark, would it be possible to go to a particular page?
I'm assuming that if there is an answer it may be specific to Adobe's PDF reader plugin or something, and may have version limitations, but I'm mostly interested in whether the technique exists at all.
Yes, you can link to specific pages by number or named locations and that will always work if the user's browser uses Adobe Reader as plugin for viewing PDF files.
For a specific page by number:
Link text
For a named location (destination):
Link text
To create destinations within a PDF with Acrobat:
Manually navigate through the PDF for the desired location
Go to View > Navigation Tabs > Destinations
Under Options, choose Scan Document
Once this is completed, select New Destination from the Options menu and enter an appropriate name
RFC 3778 section 3 specifies "Fragment Identifiers" that can be used with PDF files, which include nameddest and page.
There are multiple query parameters that can be handled.

It's worth adding that Wayne's solution also works in:
Chrome (since v. 14 from 2011, see this issue for details) (tested on v. 87 and v. 44),
Firefox (tested on v. 84.0.1 and v. 40),
Opera (tested on v. 73 and v. 31),
Safari (tested on v. 14.0.2, it didn't work on v. 8),
(Updated with the current versions as of January 2021.)
PDF Open Parameters documents the available URL fragments you can use.
