I am using dust 1.1.1. I've tried nesting the #size help inside of an #if but that broke.
Another trick to it is once I've determined the length is greater than one I then want to iterate through the array.
The Dust grammar does not allow a helper to be used inside another helper, except in the body.
Instead, I would try something like this:
{#myArray}
{#gt key=$len value=1}{.}{/gt}
{/myArray}
This will only output the value of the element in the array if the length of the array ($len) is greater than 1.
My workaround for this was:
{?myArray[1]}
{!Do greater than one stuff!}
{/myArray[1]}

I'm pretty new to ruby on rails, so I'm probably missing some syntax. Big picture I am trying to get the value for a specified percentile. Conceptually I am taking my table 'Scores', sorting it, getting the last 'x' values, and then taking the first value. I can't seem to figure out how to pass 'x', which is based on the length of the dataset to the chain.
def get_percentile()
record_count = Scores.count(:id)*0.05
record_threshold = record_count.round()
Score_percentile = Scores.order(:points).last(record_threshold).first().points
return Score_percentile
end
get_percentile
If I just enter .last(20) this works as I expect, so I just don't know how to pass the variable.
Thanks.
You may be passing a 0 into your .last() function with your rounding.
There are a variety of options to make sure you pass at least a 1
[record_threshold, 1].max will give you at least 1. https://apidock.com/ruby/Enumerable/max
Changing .round() to .ceil() rounds up in all instances. https://apidock.com/ruby/Float/ceil
I have a dataset with a number of columns. Two of them are practically the same however in variable column 1 there are string data that I would like to extract and replace in empty cells of variable column 2.
I tried using the syntax
If
variable_2 = "".
Compute variable_1 = variable_2.
End If
But do not get anything. Please, could someone help with this?
Much appreciated.
This should be either
if var2="" var2=var1.
(no period after the condition, no "end if")
OR
do if var2="".
compute var2=var1.
end if.
(this is a "do if" and not just an "if" - enables you to add commands after the condition, and not needed here).
In any case, if variable_2 is empty you want to run variable_2=variable_1 and not the reverse.
Can this (Google Sheet) =IFS syntax be improved?
=IFS(and(E42>E38;E42>E34;E42>E30;E42>E26;E42>E22;E42>E18); "Cattleman";
and(E38>E42;E38>E34;E38>E30;E38>E26;E38>E22;E38>E18); "Naturalist";
and(E34>E42;E34>E38;E34>E30;E34>E26;E34>E22;E34>E18); "Farmer";
and(E30>E42;E30>E38;E30>E34;E30>E26;E30>E22;E30>E18); "Carpenter";
and(E26>E42;E26>E38;E26>E30;E26>E34;E26>E22;E26>E18); "Blacksmith";
and(E22>E42;E22>E38;E22>E30;E22>E34;E22>E26;E22>E18); "Miner";
and(E18>E42;E18>E38;E18>E30;E18>E34;E18>E22;E18>E26); "Builder")
And how can I add a default value so that if this syntax returns FALSE it doesn't say #N/A! in the cell, but "No class" or something similar instead (or empty)?
One obvious way would be to replace the ANDs with a MAX. Why? In the first line, if E42 is greater than all of the other cells, it must be greater than the MAX of them. So the condition in this line
E42 > MAX(E38; E34; E30; E26; E22; E18)
which looks much cleaner. Repeat for the other lines.
Trying to simplify it more, the logic of the formula seems to be that depending on which of the cells is the greatest, you choose a particular literal value. There is a function for that! I'd try this (can't test it though without access to your data)
=CHOOSE(
MATCH(
MAX(E42; E38; E34; E30; E26; E22; E18);
{E42; E38; E34; E30; E26; E22; E18});
"Cattleman"; "Naturalist"; "Farmer"; "Carpenter"; "Blacksmith"; "Miner"; "Builder")
wrap it in IFERROR like this:
=IFERROR(IFS(
AND(E42>E38;E42>E34;E42>E30;E42>E26;E42>E22;E42>E18);"Cattleman";
AND(E38>E42;E38>E34;E38>E30;E38>E26;E38>E22;E38>E18);"Naturalist";
AND(E34>E42;E34>E38;E34>E30;E34>E26;E34>E22;E34>E18);"Farmer";
AND(E30>E42;E30>E38;E30>E34;E30>E26;E30>E22;E30>E18);"Carpenter";
AND(E26>E42;E26>E38;E26>E30;E26>E34;E26>E22;E26>E18);"Blacksmith";
AND(E22>E42;E22>E38;E22>E30;E22>E34;E22>E26;E22>E18);"Miner";
AND(E18>E42;E18>E38;E18>E30;E18>E34;E18>E22;E18>E26);"Builder");
"No class")
I'd like to know how to turn different variables with specific values into a new category variable to extend the specific values? I tried it with compute a variable to get a new one but it didn't work:
this is what I tried but it didn't work:
DO IF ((Q103_01=>3) AND (Q103_05=>3) AND (Q201_06=<2) AND (Q201_07=<2) AND (Q201_08=<2) AND (Q301_06=<2) AND (Q301_07=<2) AND (Q301_08=<2) AND (Q305_04=2) AND (Q305_06=2) AND (Q409_05=1) AND (Q407_07=<2) AND (Q408_04=1) AND (Q408_05=1) AND (Q411_02=<2) AND (Q203_04=<2) AND (Q203_06=<2) AND (Q203_07=<2) AND (Q203_09=<2) AND (Q203_10=<2)).
COMPUTE NewVariable = 1.
END IF.
EXECUTE.
Thanks for help in advance!
When using "Less than or equal to" or "Greater than or equal to" the sequence should be <= (or LE), >= (or GE).
The error message came from using => instead of >=.
Otherwise your syntax should work fine.
But it can be written more efficiently this way:
if cond1 and cond2 and cond3 newvar=1.
without using do if.
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.
