Race to Infinity: Results cast on Percentage and n...
Beginning to think this was a poor thought out incentive from the start.
From what i've read it works out the winners will be the top 5 areas with the most percentage, our area has 15k-16k people, we have roughly 16% of people voted, looking at the top areas they have mostly 1200-1500 people and have 60-80%..
It would appear that the areas with fewer people are destined to win this..kinda sucks as we are not even penned in for Infinity and god only knows when we'll get it.
They could've split it into groups i.e depending on the number of people that live within each area, i.e 1000 - 5000. 5000 - 10000...-10000 - 15000 that way at least areas with large amount of people would stand a chance of getting a slot...
The race to infinity was just a cheap publicity stunt designed to get peoples hopes up. My exchange came 35th in the race (out of 5600 so top 1%) yet we will never see anything faster than 0.25Mbps with BT. They just ran the race as a 'look at what we are giving to those that don't need it' just to rub our noses in it. I hope that after BT do all the work on these exchanges that showed no interest, that the people use other services such as TT fibre or virgin media for a faster speed at a lower price. My area on the other hand has no access to VM so BT could have got 100% of the customers if they had listened to the results, but it seems they would rather give it to people that can already get 20Mbps for a fraction of the price. Maybe that is why uptake is only 15% in these areas. you have made a big mistake BT and it is the customers that are paying for it. Atleast Ian Livingston got his exchange done first though, nothing like being CEO of a company and using customers money to give yourself a better product first is there.

How to impl result match percentage and statistics on # of visit of docs
Can someone please suggest on how to impl result match percentage and statistics on # of visit of docs.

How to calculate percentage and difference of two values in matrix report in ssrs 2008
Hi everyone,
DB--SQL server
SSRS-2008
I am creating matrix report with grouping on WEEK and Fiscalyearweek,
I need to calculate of difference between FY14W01,FY15W01 ande percentage of those..
how to calculate in ssrs level.
Thank You, Manasa.VHi veerapaneni,
According to your description, you want to calculated the increment percentage and difference between two fiscal year week within each week. Right?
In this scenario, since we need to do calculation based on values between dynamically generated cells, we can't simply use expression to achieve this goal. In this scenario, we need to use custom code to record the value for fiscal 14 and fiscal 15, then
we can calculate the difference and percentage within the column group. We have tested your case in our local environment, please refer to the steps and screenshots below:
1. Add the custom code below into the report (you may need to modify the data type based on your scenario:
Public Shared Value1 as Integer
Public Shared Value2 as Integer
Public Shared previous as string
Public Shared previousweek as string
Public Shared Function GetValue(Value as Integer,product as String,Week as String) as Integer
If product =previous and Week =previousweek Then
Value2=Value
Else
previous=product
previousweek=Week
Value1=Value
End If
return Value
End Function
Public Shared Function GetPct()
return (Value2-Value1)/Value1
End Function
Public Shared Function GetDiff()
return Value2-Value1
End Function
2. Design the matrix like below:
3. The result look like below:
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Missing results when using percentage function %GT
Hi all,
I'm using the percentage function in BEx. As you can see in the left two columns, it works fine when the results are higher then 0,4. All the results less than 0,4 are set to 0. In the last column I calculated the results with an Excel formula.
Any Idea, what the problem can be?
4.392,080 1,5635 % 1,563481163
997,440 0,0000 % 0,355066085
4.761,680 1,6951 % 1,695050405
1.260,000 0,4485 % 0,448531508
469,600 0,0000 % 0,167166981
280.916,720 100,0000 %
280.916,720 100,0000 %
Many thanks in advance!Dear Daya sagar,
Iam tried with taht functionality the query it self it is showing wrong and iam getting below error as result.
Diagnosis
The query contains a formula with the operator %RT. Therefore, the query cannot be released for OLE DB for OLAP.
The operators %GT, %RT, %CT, SUMGT, SUMRT, SUMCT and LEAF depend on the display of the list in the BEx Analyzer. If you used OLE DB for OLAP or MDX, this formula would deliver unexpected values.
Procedure
Do not release the query for OLE DB for OLAP, or do not use the operators %GT, %RT, %CT, SUMGT, SUMRT, SUMCT or LEAF. You may be able to achieve the desired result by selecting constants.
and report output is not coming.
Thanks & Regards,

Formula for calculating aggregate percentage and percenatge of gender
hi all
i have a sp from which i get result columns gender,percentage,studentcount,year
my sp is like this..
IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.objects WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(N'[usp_GetState]') AND type in (N'P'))
DROP PROCEDURE usp_GetState

now..i wrote formula for percentage and when i connected this sp to my rdl where i took tablixi gave percentage value to gender and total percentage column
gender(column group)
total
number percentage
passcategory
this is my tablix format
my output looks like
boys girls
total
number(percentage)
passcategory1 (percenatge) 21 (40.38) 43 (56.75)
64(48.56)
passcategory2 (percenatge) 11 (21.15) 10 (13.51) 31(17.33)
passcategory3 (percentage) 20 (38.46) 21 (28.37) 41(33.41)
total (percentage)
52(xxx) 74 (xxx) 136 (100%)
i'm not getting thegender percentage properly for girls and boys total percentage of boys and girls coming correctly but individual percentage is not properly coming...that's because in sp i gave calculation for only total percenatge ..how can i calculate
the individual percentage of girls and boys in single column...so that i can place in gender column in tablix..and i can retrieve individual percentgaes of girls and boys seperately as shown in output..
please reply..its urgent
thanks in advance..
luckyplease reply..its urgent
Here is a tip: if you want to tick off people from helping you, you should absolutely include "urgent" in your post. That's a good way to encourage people to move to the next post. I did see this one earlier today, but did not have the time.
Anyway, I cannot really make out heads or tails of your question. Your output takes about gender, but I cannot see it in the output from the query, which appears to group by "Foreign" and StateName. How does the boys and girls get into the picture?
And for that matter that "totals" column?

Race to Infinity...
Have a read into this wrongly?
Basically all people need to do is sign up to the race to infinity website and the top 5 will be bumped to the top of BT's upgrade list....
The issue I see is its not really worth bothering to do.
My exchange is showing as having 20,841 connections, at the moment 169 out of the 20,841 have voted for it which gives Weymouth a total of 0.81% !
BathEaston exchange has 2436 connections, of which they currently have 98 votes giving them a total of 4.02%
Batheaston is just an example, but if you live in an area that has a relatively low amount of connections, it is far easier to get people to vote, my point being that large towns with large amounts of connections stand no chance at all.
But maybe that's just me and my half empty glass talkingmine should of gone in April. then it got delayed to September 31st, and as that does not exist, they have shifted it til 31st december 2010. the infinity box is at the bottom of my road, and has a newly tarmac'ed track to it, so there is always hope.
just gone through to vote, which says i already have infinity. on going to the infinity page, the give me a date of 29th October 2010 - or tomorrow
i am aready registered, but have yet to have a confirmation email.
i hop tomorrow comes tomorrow ...................

I need to have all results displayed and keep building the array(display until, the end of the test)Eventually I will have to include a min max section that displays the min and max values calculated, but that should be easy with the min max function.Actually I thought this should have been easy but, I gues I can not see the forest through the trees.

regulation_tester_7_loops.vi 244 KBI didn't really have time to dig in and understand your program in depth,
but I have a few tips for you that might things a bit easier:
- You use local variables excessively which really complicates things. Try
not to use them and it will make your life easier.
- If you flowchart the design (very similar to a dataflow diagram, keep in
mind!) you want to gather data, calculate a value from that data, store the
calculation in an array, and loop while the time is in a certain range. So
theres really not much need for a sequence as long as you get rid of the
local variables (sequences also complicate things)
- You loop again if timepassed+1 is still less than some constant. Rather
than messing with locals it seems so much easier to use a shiftregister (if
absolutely necessary) or in this case base it upon the number of iterations
of the loop. In this case it looks like "time passed" is the same thing as
the number of loop iterations, but I didn't check closely. There's an i
terminal in your whileloop to read for the number of iterations.
- After having simplified your design by eliminating unnecessary sequence
and local variables, you should be able to draw out the labview diagram.
Don't try to use the "insert into array" vis since theres no need. Each
iteration of your loop calculates a number which goes into the next position
of the array right? Pass your result outside the loop, and enable indexing
on the terminal so Labview automatically generates the array for you. If
your calculation is a function of previous data, then use a shift register
to keep previous values around.
I wish you luck. Post again if you have any questions. Without a more
detailed understanding of your task at hand it's kind of hard to post actual
code suggestions for you.

Mac won't update software or access iTunes shop. Message comes up with 'not connected to the net. Check connections' error. I still have internet access. Changed my Apple ID but no result. Repaired permissions and re-installed operating system.
It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

Hi,
That link takes you to the Facebook for iPhone app.
You have posted in the Mac App Store for Mac OS X. (I know it's somewhat confusing especially with the new forum format).
Try deleting the Facebook app from the iPhone by pressing down on the app on the iPhone until it jiggles then tap the circle with an x in it. Then tap the Home button to stop all the apps from jiggling.
Now tap the App Store icon and and re download the Facebook app again.
If that doesn't make a difference, post over in the iPhone Discussions forum at this link.

One likely reason is the % battery is not that accurate because of the smaller battery capacity in the iPod compared to iPhone and iPad. Users why use a % battery app post that the % reading changes a lot.
