I'm trying to sort a string field in crystal report that contains numbers and letters
I have:
21B
1
10
11B
33A
11
200
120C
11A
50
120A
1B
and I like to sort it like this: first numeric then letters
1
1B
10
11
11A
11B
21B
33A
50
120A
120C
200
I've tried
if length({Table.field}) = 1 then
"0" + {Table.field})
else if NumericText(right({Table.field}, 1)
then {Table.field}
else "0" + {Table.field}
but it doesn't give me the result I'm looking for
try like below
Create a formula #Sort and write below formula
val({Table.field})
Place the formula in section where you placed fields and supress it. Now sort the records with respect to the created formula.

I feel like my question should be easy to figure out, but I've looked around and can't seem to find out how to get a basic array spill function that produces the max value. Here's my simplified data set:
Col A
Col B
Apple
864
Carrot
189
Pear
256
Apple
975
Pear
873
Carrot
495
Apple
95
Pear
36
Carrot
804
My objective is to have a unique list of food (from Col A), that returns the max corresponding Value from Col B. The formula for unique list from Col A is easy... =UNIQUE(filter(A:A,A:A<>"")), what I'm struggling with is getting a dynamic maxifs to align with this.
To illustrate, if I put the unique function in cell D2 (thus it would spill to d4 as shown below in blue), a correct corresponding non-array function would be =MAXIFS(B:B,A:A,D2) (shown in column e). I could drag this down the remaining rows but I would like this to be dynamic as there may be more food in my data set in the future.
What I would EXPECT to work is... =filter(MAXIFS(B:B,A:A,D2:D),D2:D<>"") but this returns #Value!. By comparison, if I were to use sumif/Average, =filter(SUMIF(A:A,D2:D,B:B),D2:D<>""), I get what I WOULD expect (which really confuses me).
Is there a way to get a dynamic maxifs (or any function that produces an equal value in column E) that would spill based on unique values in column D?
try:
=QUERY({A:B}, "select Col1,max(Col2) where Col2 is not null group by Col1 label max(Col2)''")
bonus:
=QUERY({A:B}, "select Col1,max(Col2),sum(Col2) where Col2 is not null group by Col1 label max(Col2)'',sum(Col2)''")
bonus 2:
=SORTN(SORT(A1:B, 2, ), 9^9, 2, 1, 1)
2 - sort the second column of range A1:B
<empty> - or 0 or FALSE = "in descending order"
9^9 - output all rows
2 - 2nd mode of SORTN = "group by..."
1 - 1st column
1 - in ascending order
Responding to provide a more clear answer and simplification as others see this looking for same:
The easiest way to accomplish this is by using an array formula such as:
=MAX(IF($A$1:$A$7="Apple",$B$1:$B%7)) followed by CTRL-SHIFT-ENTER
I have a Google Sheet in which I have to calculate a moving average conditioned to the 'ID' that calculates the average of the last 3 periods.
Any idea on how to do it?
I leave an example with the final results (column "Mean Average (last 3)").
Regards!
ID value Mean Average (last 3)
1 12 12,00
1 19 12,00
1 19 15,50
1 18 16,67
1 13 18,67
2 11 11,00
2 18 11,00
2 15 14,50
2 17 14,67
2 11 16,67
3 11 11,00
3 16 11,00
3 10 13,50
3 11 12,33
I've got an answer that may work for you. Assuming that your sample data is in columns A4:C (see my sample sheet), try the following formula in column D, in the same row as your data headers.
={"Mean Avg";ArrayFormula(
IF(ROW(A4:A18)<ROW(A$4)+2,
C$4,
IF(NOT(EQ(A4:A18,OFFSET(A4:A18,-1,0))),
B4:B19,
IF(NOT(EQ(A4:A18,OFFSET(A4:A18,-2,0))),
B3:B18,
IF(NOT(EQ(A4:A18,OFFSET(A4:A18,-3,0))),
(B2:B17+B3:B18)/2,
(B1:B16+B2:B17+B3:B18)/3)))))}
The first IF checks whether it is one of the first two data rows, to force the initial values.
The next IF checks if the ID is not equal to the row above, and forces the start of a new Average, with just one value. The next IF checks if it is the second ID in a series (NOT EQual to the ID 2 rows up), and if yes, also uses the single value from the row above.
The next IF checks up three rows, and if the IDs are different, it averages the values from the two rows above.
Otherwise, this is the fourth data row in a series with the same ID, and the formula takes the values from the three rows above, and averages them.
Due to the offsets, it seems quite sensitive to ranges, so it may need some tuning if you move it.
Let me know if this helps.
I'm trying to calculate a row value based on the previous row value in the same column within a report expression. I can't precalculate this from database since starting point of calculation is dependent from input parameters and values in a table should be recalculated dynamically within report itself.
In Excel analogical data and formula look like as it is shown below (starting point is always 100):
B C D E
Price PreviousPrice CalcValue Formula
1 NULL NULL 100
2 2.6 2.5 104 B2/C2*D1
3 2.55 2.6 102 B3/C3*D2
4 2.6 2.55 104 B4/C4*D3
5 2.625 2.6 105 B5/C5*D4
6 2.65 2.625 106 B6/C6*D5
7 2.675 2.65 107 B7/C7*D6
I tried to calculate expected values ("CalcValue" is the name of column where expression is set) like this:
=Fields!Price.Value/ PreviousPrice.Value * Previous(reportitems("CalcValue").Value))
but got an error "Aggregate functions can be used only on report items contained in page headers and footers"
Can you please advice whether expected result is achievable in my case and suggest a solution?
Thank you in advance!
Sadly I'm still facing with issue: calculated column does not consider previous calculated value. E.g., I added CalcVal field with 100 as default and tried to calculate using above approach, like: =previous(runningValue(Fields!CalcVal.Value, sum, "DataSet1") ) * Fields!Price.Value/Fields!PreviousPrice.Value.
But in this case it always multiples Fields!Price.Value/Fields!PreviousPrice.Value by 100..
For example CalcVal on Fly always show 200
=previous(runningValue(Fields!CalcVal.Value, sum, "DataSet1")) * 2

I tried with your sample data, here is how I achieved the results
Formula to use, You might have to take care of null values
=Fields!Price.Value/(Fields!PreviousPrice.Value*Previous(Fields!CalcValue.Value))
Edit: Update to answer after Op's comment
CalcValue is caluated with below formula i.e on the fly
=RunningValue(CountDistinct("Tablix6"),Count,"Tablix6"*100
and then Final value as below
=Fields!Price.Value/(Fields!PreviousPrice.Value*
Previous(RunningValue(CountDistinct("Tablix6"),Count,"Tablix6"))*100)
I want to simulate dice roll functionality. However, I don't get what I expect. I want to get a Dice with value ranging from 1 to 6 inclusively (dice).
I tried to find it in Eiffel Documentation, but it is very hard to do.
The following code prints values for 10 consecutive rolls:
local
r: RANDOM
do
across
1 |..| 10 as i
from
create r.set_seed (...) -- ... is the initial "seed"
r.start
loop
io.put_integer (r.item \\ 6 + 1)
io.put_new_line
r.forth
end
end
Using SQL Server 2014, I have SSRS report with matrix inside.
Problem: difference between 2 negative numbers doesn't give sum
The expression of field is:
= ReportItems!Textbox1.value - ReportItems!Textbox2.value
In report it looks like:
Textbox1 | Textbox2 | Expression result |
------------------------------------------
-73 | -170 | -97 |
So i have result -97 instead of 97.
How I can fix this problem?
that is weird i tied table, matrix and text boxes all seem to work fine. i'm using ssrs 2012 though.
you could try something like
=(ReportItems!Textbox1.Value - ReportItems!Textbox2.Value) * iif( ReportItems!Textbox1.Value > ReportItems!Textbox2.Value,1,-1)
