A Beginners Outcry: Homework of sum and Average

Dear all,
I am a java dummie. This is what happens intuitively in my mind. I need a program that runs to calculate the sum and average of either positive or negative inputed integers. The maximum input integers = 100. As defined, sn = sum of negative integers, sp = sum of positive, in = count of negative integers, ip = count of positive integers. If input integer = 0, the program comes to an end. If input integer is non zero, the outcomes would be sum of negative and sum of positive, average of negative and average of negative. I think I should use do-while statement, but..... Also, for the input, should I input a list of integers....Can someone show me the code plus some brief explanation that a beginner like me would be able to understand? Thanks.

~Ta. I just read through that article again, and again I find myself in awe of the sageness of such simple advise... I'm bookmarking it, to reread whenever I feel like tearing my hair out over a problem.

Sum and Average Group Wage instead of Details Wage

I have a subreport where I have included all of our employment records and grouped it by employee ID. In the Group Footer, to show the latest employment record I used the Max(Start Date) and I have also placed the Hourly Wage field here which shows the appropriate Wage for the Max Date. But I can't seem to use the Sum or Average Summary because it Sums and Averages All Wages in the Details report vs. only the latest record.
So, how do I Sum/Average the wages for only the last employment record Or how do I create the report to show only the Last Employment Record?
I'm using Crystal XI. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Place the fields in group header instead of placing in details section using maximum() function. Now got to report>record sort expert>add start date field-->select descending order.
Now the report shows latest date entries for each group.
If you want to calcualte the sum then use mannual running totals like
create a formula like
@sum:
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar i;
i:=i+{field}
Now place this in group header and supress
create another formula like
@Total:
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar i;
place this in report footer which gives grand total.

Sum and average of a list of integers

heya all
im trying Implement a program to find the sum and average of a list of integers terminated by the data marker -999.
import java.util.*;
public class sumaverage
   public static void main(String[] args)
int sum = 0;     // input the first number
       int num = kybd.nextInt(); // kybd is an instance of Scanner
       while ( num != -999 )    // while the end of data not found
            sum += num ;
            num = kybd.nextInt(); // input the next number
       System.out.println("the sum is " + sum );
}}Currently im getting " cant find symbol" on lines 10 + 16 pointing at the k in kybd.nextInt(); , could anyone tell me whats wrong as im lost ?
Thankyou

thanks mate , i cant belive i missed that :S
im now trying to add the adverage to the code
ive done the following coding , can anyone confirm this is correct ? it all compiles fine ...

How to get two Results - Sum and Average for one KeyFigure

I have "Material" in Rows and "Cal Year/Month" in Columns and also KeyFigure "Qty" in Columns.
The Results (Yellow) of "Qty" is defined as "Avg of all values <>0". This works fine but how do I get two Results - one is a "Sum" and the other "Avg" for just one KeyFigure. The output basically should look like below:
      Cal Yr/Month 01/2006   02/2006   03/2006...    Result        Result
Material                   Qty       Qty           Qty       Sum of Qty   Avg of Qty
ABC                       100         0             200            300             150
DEF                       100         200          300            600             200
GHI                        500         300          400           1200            400

Hi Srinivas,
I think you must use Restricted Key Figures and Formula.
Do not introduce CALMONTH in columns, but restrict 12 times the Key Figure Qty with 0CALMONTH3, that is 01-02-03-...
Then create a Formula that is the Sum of all Restricted KF and call it SUM.
Then copy the previous Formula (SUM) and call it AVG and give the option of Average of all Values <>0.
Try.
Ciao.

BEx Query Formating - Displaying both Sum and Average in the same report

Hi everybody,
I need to create a BW report in the below format,
                      Company Code                                            Total       Total Average
                               0001            0002      0003      0004
Doc Type
    AV                        10               10         10         10            40                 10
    RV                        20               20         20         20            80                 20
Getting the report till the 'Total' column is easy but having the 'Total Average' as a separate column is where I am stuck.
Having the company code in the rows, and not clolumns, would have solved the issue but I need to keep the above format. Also I do not want to
see the Total Average for every Company Code, just that of the 'Total'.
In the Query Designer, in the Column section I have first the 'Company Code' and then the 'Count' in a structure, so whatever I add to this structure,
is displayed for each Company Code, that means 2 columns for each Company code. This changes the format.
I cannot use the Cell Definition method here, as then it would be a static structure and the number of Company Codes are not fixed.
It would be great if somebody could provide some suggestions.
Thank you,
Ajay

Hi Suman,
Thanks for the quick reply.
I have tried this, but again this will change the format. With the way you said, I will only get the report in the below 2 formats,

Both the above are different from the format that I need.

Moving sums and averages - it is possible - any ideas??

Customer wants a report with these conditions (values are entered by user at run time):
* Start time - for example 2008/01/01 00:00 + (no problem, filter on time dimension) +
* Stop time - for example 2008/01/31 23:59 + (no problem, filter on time dimension) +
* Window size for examples: 1 day ; 3 days; 1 hour; 5 minutes
* Step size for examples: 2 day ; 3 days; 1 hour; 15 minutes
* Measures are agregated for every line by Windows size

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

When i highlight a group of cells the sum and average return a 0 yet there are numbers in the cells. Any ideas?

I am using numbers to automatically calculate wages, when I highlight a group of cells containing the numbers 4 4 3 I would expect to get a sum value of 11 but i get nil? any ideas would be greatfully appreciated.

Are the cells formatted as text rather than as numbers?

Total and Average in RESULT of same keyfigure?

Hi guyz,
Just want to ask if having the SUM and AVERAGE result of one (1) keyfigure is possible in BEx Query Designer?
Here is the report:

RESULT                                                1050           ---> average of result --- (600 + 1500) / 2 = 1050
How will I do the AVERAGE? I already got the TOTAL since it's the DEFAULT in CALCULATION tab. But is it possible to also have the AVERAGE?
Thank you!

Hi Loed,
You can try to use Exeption aggregation to acheive this.
OR
You can use cell restrictions and get this done.There are many documents avaliable for Cell Restrictions

Is there a way to not include zero values in sums and an average?

I'm working on a new performace evaluation & would like to sum the score of each line, then get an average of the total scores.
example: stength (1 value), Solid Performer (2 value), Performer (3 value), Recommend Development (4 value), N/A (zero value) then a total score of all the values, not including the zero value.
Then an average score of all the scores given.
Hope this makes sense!
Thanks in advance for the input!!!

If you use the calculation option "The field is the ____ of the following fields:", nulll values and zero values are included as zero and the number of number of items use is the number of fields selected.
If you want a different calculation, then you will have to write a custom script to sum and count the fields you want to include in the calculation.

Calculating Percent totals and Averages in SSRS

Below is a report created using SSRS. I want to be able to calculate the percentage(%) total to add up to 100 % in the Total column. For some reason my averages are not working as you can see from the table. The idea is to calculate the averages of opportunities
as well as Sold. But from my calculation, things are not adding up as I supposed. This report is not grouped by parent. How do I make this to work as it should? Thank you.
(NB: Please zoom in to view the image)
Zionlite

Hi,
According to the description, I doubt you may manually add Total and Averages columns. Did you manually add Local and International or they were in a column group?
You can use the following expression for the Opportunity Cost(averages) column in the total row:
=Sum(Fields!opportunitycost.Value)/2
How did you calculate the percentage column? If it is Sold value divided by Opportunity Cost value, use:
=Sum(Fields!sold.Value)/Sum(Fields!opportunitycost.Value)
Also try to define the scope in the expression and see if it make difference.
If there is no progress, please capture the screenshot of your design tab.(Click on the report and capture the image of your report structure)
Also, tell us the expression of the text box which in problem.
Thanks.

UCCE 7.5 how to get BHCA and Average Call Handle time?

Hi everybody,
I'm trying to do an audit of the existing UCCE system.
Can someone please tell me how to get the BHCA and Average Call Handle time for agent?
I did a SQL query against the CallTypeHalfHour table for all the entering Call Type but I'm not sure that's the right BHCA.
Thanks in advance,
Best Regards,

Hi again Geoff,
Before closing this thread, I'm curious about your query against TCD for average handle time.
Here's mine using Skill_Group_Half_Hour
SELECT
    SUM(HandledCallsTalkTimeToHalf) AS TalkTime,
    SUM(IncomingCallsOnHoldTimeToHalf) AS HoldTime,
    SUM(CallsHandledToHalf) AS HandledCalls,
      AHT =
            CASE
            WHEN SUM(CallsHandledToHalf) > 0 THEN (SUM(HandledCallsTalkTimeToHalf) +SUM(IncomingCallsOnHoldTimeToHalf)) / SUM(CallsHandledToHalf)
            ELSE 0
            END
FROM t_Skill_Group_Half_Hour
WHERE DateTime between '02/01/11 00:00' and '02/28/11 23:30'
Besides, can you please also tell me how to get the Average Waiting Time (time before get answered by an agent) ?
Thank you in advance, Geoff,

Subtotals - sum of average column

Hi,
I am new to PowerPivot so please excuse me if this is a stupid question. I have a pivot table that uses a SQL view as its data source. The pivot table looks like this:
Price = average
Qty = sum
Value = sum
Budget = average
The way the view has been written the budget figure is given to grouping Customer + Product + MonthYear. So, if I drop it into the pivot table as an average it comes up correctly. The problem for me is that I want to turn on subtotals
and get the sum of the average'd budget lines in the rowgroup above. I have read that I can do this with PowerPivot by createing measures. I guess my question really is "How do I use a measure in place of a subtotal in a pivot table
report - how would I drag and drop it into place so it repeats as a subtotal would?" The next question would be how would I write this measure?
TIA

Hi Julina,
I had seen those threads before but didn't quite understand them. I have got it now. This is the formula that I have come up with, but I still get the averages of the averages, and not the sum of the averages:
IF(COUNTROWS(VALUES(vwComprehensiveDeliveries_YRN[CustomerName]))>1,
SUMX(
SUMMARIZE(
vwComprehensiveDeliveries_YRN,
vwComprehensiveDeliveries_YRN[CustomerName],
vwComprehensiveDeliveries_YRN[Product],
vwComprehensiveDeliveries_YRN[BL_Year],
vwComprehensiveDeliveries_YRN[BL_Qtr],
vwComprehensiveDeliveries_YRN[BL_Month],
"Customer Subtotal", AVERAGE(vwComprehensiveDeliveries_YRN[BudgetValue])
[Customer Subtotal])
AVERAGE(vwComprehensiveDeliveries_YRN[BudgetValue])
I have tried it with only grouping SUMMARIZE by CustomerName, and combinations of the ones you see above. What have I done wrong?
Thanks,
C

Sum of Averages?

Hello All,
Am extremely frustrated at this point so i thought I'd post here and maybe someone can help me with a solution. I have a report that I created that shows me the average amount of charges for a day. How do I take a sum of the averages for for each day? If i try to insert a summary and then use the average field it gives me an error. Anyways around this?

Since you are able to get the avg amt for each charge ID then create formula like this
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar i;
i:=i+Average value calcualted;
Place this in ChargeID group footer.
Now create another formula like this
whileprintingrecords;
numbervar i;
Place this in report footer which shows the sum of average.
Hope this helps!

Raghavendra

BPC Netweaver dimension formula SUM and AGGREGATE

Hello
Does anybody knows the arguments we can use with SUM and AGGREGATE in a dimension formula in BPC NW.
I would like to aggregate data on a hirarchy but not from leaf level only the child at a specific level (do an average at a certain level and then do an aggragate of the children at upper level).
Any idea how to use CHILDREN with SUM or AGGREGATE ?
Thanks
Regards

Hi Anne,
Note [1550366|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1550366] solves part of your problem (in SP06), but these formula results will not roll up the hierarchy and you still cannot reference formula members within formulas, so you will not easily be able to aggregate the averages that you calculate.
It would probably be better to calculate your averages in script logic and assign them to normal base members.
