TDIST and CHIDIST Probability functions in BW

Hi,
I need to calculate Probability values in BW reports which are based on TDIST and CHIDIST functions. Has anyone ever done something like this, if so please let me know the procedure to calculate these values in BW.
Thanks,
S

I am not sure if TDIST and CHIDIST are avaiable native to BW - you could try the data mining workbench through APD or RSDMWB for the same.... you can do cluster / decision tree models etc ...
Another option is to see if you can export the same into SAS and achieve the same...

If you have a passcode to the screen lock that you've forgotten, restore the device from the computer to which the device is synced. For information and instructions, see:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1212
If that will not work, you'll need to put the device into Recovery Mode and then try the Restore again:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If that still doesn't work, as a last resort try DFU mode:

If your device is running iOS 7 and you set up Find My iPhone (iPad/iPod), however, then it has the Activation Lock on it and you'll need to enter in your Apple ID and password to activate the device after restoring:

Firefox and click javascript function on h:commandLink

I was wondering if you can help me with a problem i'm having with a h:commandLink tag. What I am trying to do is give the user a choice of executing the action or not by using the confirm() and click() javascript functions:
<h:commandLink id="runNowLink" styleClass="tableFooterText" value="#{ViewResources.RunNow}" action="#{Schedule.runNow}" onmouseup="if(confirm('#{ViewResources.RunNowConfirm}')) this.click()"/>
This works in IE, a dialog box with "ok" and "cancel" appears and depending on which option the user selects, the link is "clicked" or not. However, this does not work in firefox as the browser just goes through with the action regardless of the option selected. Can someone please help?

probably set the property of <h:commandLink type="submit" /> or <h:commandLink immediate="true" />

Needed() and changed() region function

Hello,
I'm studying the basicBoxBlur code that comes as sample in
PBToolkit. As I'm a beginner in code writing, I have some troubles
understanding properly the use of needed() and changed() region
function: are they supposed to simplify the PB calculations, since
the filter runs even commenting those lines?
Could you gently provide some more info about their role
specifically in the basicBoxBlur code?
I'm sorry if this appears as dummy question, but the my
personal learning curve is quite steep... (my actual goal is to be
able to rewrite some sort of Gaussian Blur, Maximum, Minimum and
Median Photoshop filters, so this is only a initial step toward
them - I'll be fighting with sorting algorithms later on :)
TIA,
Davide Barranca

Hi Davide,
I'm really glad you've asked this question. It's a very good
question. Region functions would be considered one of the more
confusing, topics with respect to Pixel Bender. Unfortunately, this
makes it difficult to explain in words, but we'll try anyway.
The region functions are the mechanism by which you indicate
to the product your running in (whether it's the toolkit,
Photoshop, or After Effects) how your filter affects the size of
the image. Currently, Flash does not support these functions in the
Pixel Bender source, but you do need to implement the same thing in
the supporting ActionScript code.
If you think about a blur or any other convolution type
filter, you end up sampling a certain window around the pixel in
order to get the output color. For instance, if you have a blur on
the X axis that's one pixel in radius, you end up sampling 3 pixels
for every output: one to the left, the pixel that's at the same
coordinate as the output pixel, and one to the right of that.
Simple. If you consider what happens at the edge of the image,
though, things get more complicated. If you processing the result
for the very left edge of the output image, say at coordinate
(0,0), you'll need to sample three pixels, (-1, 0), (0, 0), (1, 0).
You need to account for the negative values when sampling. There is
a similar problem on the other edge where you will be sampling at a
location greater than the output window on the right. This means
that to produce an output of size 512, you actually need an input
of size 514 (one extra pixel for the left, and one extra pixel for
the right). This is what the needed function is calculating. The
function answers the question: "For an output of size X, what size
input do I need?" In most cases this will be exactly the same as
the output, but in some examples, like BoxBlur, this is not the
case.
The same thing happens on the output as well. Consider the
one dimensional box blur with a radius of 1 again. In this case,
you provide it an input of size X. If we were interested in
displaying any pixels that had any color at all, we would get an
output of size X + 2. This is because the edge pixel contribute to
the coloring of pixels outside of the input dimensions. In other
words, we would get a non-black pixel at location (-1, 0) because
the pixel at (0, 0) would be within the radius. This is what gives
you a smearing of the image outside of its boundaries when you
apply a blur to it. This is what the changed function is
calculating. In other words, it asks the question: "If I give the
filter an input of size X, what sized output would it produce?"
Again, for most cases, this would be the same as the input
size. Filters that fall into this category are color corrections.
Additionally, for convolutions and blurs, the needed function would
be the same as the changed function. For warps and other
transformations, this is not the case. The best example of this is
scaling the image by two.
When you commented out the region functions, the output image
became smaller by the blur radius. This was probably not very
noticeable, but if you made the radius large, you would see the
difference. Additionally, you are probably asking why we need this
level of detail in the filter. In most simple examples, no one
would ever notice this since we often have a single input image and
execute a single filter on it. However, because these filters can
be used as a small part of the workflow for professional graphics
and effects applications, getting these details right is very
important for the filter to render the correct results in all
cases.
Since you asked specifically about the basicBoxBlur sample,
here's a breakdown. Note that the functions are exactly the same
code because it's a convolution.
float2 singlePixel = pixelSize(src);
This is getting the pixel aspect ratio. One thing I didn't
mention is the notion of the pixel aspect ratio and the need to
account for this when calculating the regions (this is the subject
of another post entirely).
return outset(outputRegion, float2(singlePixel.x *
ceil(blurRadius), singlePixel.y * ceil(blurRadius)));
The next line is increasing the requested region by the size
of the blur window radius (conceptually expand the single radius
out to a radius of size blurRadius). We take the ceiling of the
blur radius in case the radius is a non-integral value.
I hope that helps clear up any confusion. Please let me know
if you have any questions or need clarification on any points. By
the way, I'm very impressed with your list of filters, and I wish
you the best of luck with the sorting ones.
Thanks,
Brian Ronan

Console Aesthetics and Lack of Functionality

**This is not meant to be an unhelpful thread about not liking Service Manager. It's just my team and I have had a poor experience with it, and I'm wondering if we are doing things wrong or if many people have the same experiences we do. Thank you for your
comments!
Does anyone have a better experience with the Service Manager Console than what I'm having? I have used SCSM (and SCOM, SCCM, etc.) for about a month and a half now, and to be frank it's a very frustrating interface. Look to the bottom if you want to skip
the part where I complain about everything...
Let me give an example or two:
First, it is very slow, which could be due to our server environment, of course. But, to describe what I mean, let's say I need to rearrange an activity because it's in the wrong order, or one approval is ready to take place but the other
is not. In order to do this I have to place a CR on hold, apply the change, close it, reopen it, move the activity, apply, close, reopen, and then resume. Probably you don't have to close and reopen, but in our case the client throws an error
if you don't, and forces you to close and reopen the CR. It appears to be happening because some change is being made to the CR in the background, and the user is moving 'too fast.' By too fast, I mean I waited less than 30 seconds before doing something else.
We have found that closing and reopening an activity or change request seems to alleviate this a bit.
Second, the interface is very sloppy. Windows load in one place, then jump around the screen to where the last one was closed. Why can't they just open in the proper location? That sounds like bad programming to me. In addition, let's take a look inside
a CR and try to look at the history...
Besides the fact that the whole screen is ugly (poor formatting, hard to tell what's being changed if the Old Value/New Value runs off the screen to the right), if you expand a history event, then collapse it, your scrollbars don't return to where they were.
I mean, I expect this sort of behavior from Notepad, but not from an enterprise-level systems and process management platform. Not to mention an expensive one.
Why is this such a big deal? Well, let's say you're looking through history for something important, and the horizontal scrollbar is needed to view the whole item. If you've expanded other events (regardless of whether you've collapsed them), the horizontal
scrollbar is not visible unless you scroll all the way down vertically, then scroll over, then scroll back up to see the history you're actually looking for. On the same note, moving between
I would pull up more examples, but my console just crashed because I accidentally opened one of four failing SRs I'm currently tracking that crash the console for some reason.
BOTTOM LINE: The user experience in Service Manager is frustrating, at best. In reality, the analysts that use this product to process change requests and push changes into production hate the system and want to
abandon it for another. Management is considering changing products as well. I think Service Manager has a lot of potential, but as it stands it's full of bugs and is hard to use. Questions: Is there a better way of doing things? Do
you have the same challenges? Other challenges? Does Microsoft ever fix things, or do people still keep buying their products just because they're made by Microsoft? (I think I know the answer to that question...)
www.standardexcellence.net | Oklahoma IT Superhero

let me take these apart line by line.
Too slow: there are 2 parts to this, but i address the second later, so here's only the first. if the page is slow loading or slow to submit, then it's probably database performance on your server. Service Manager uses a tightly integrated
star model database, which typically requires more page cache ram then other DB types, and is much more sensitive to SQL performance then other DB types.
let's say I need to rearrange an activity: if background actions, like marking activity status, are slow, this behavior is by design. your process needs to be redesigned so those slow background activities actually happen in the background.
having people wait on background activities is a poor use of their time, regardless of how quickly those background tasks run. Rearranging and activities is a perfect example. why are people rearranging activities?
put them in the right order in the template, and no one will have to rearrange them. if you have multiple approvals that can start and finish out of order, then use
a Parallel activity to start them all at once and move onto the next step once they're all done.
Windows load in one place, then jump around the screen to where the last one was closed:
i'm sorry; window positions are preserved by the operating system in an attempt to make your life easier.
look at the history: yup, the programmatic method to take arbitrary changes and present them in a way that is meaningful to system administrators isn't perfect for end users. The history isn't intended to give analysts or end users
a quick way of seeing changes they care about, those are called notifications. the history is a troubleshooting tool for admins to see what things happen under the pretty forms. when you open your hood, the engine isn't smooth and aerodynamically curved
like the rest of the car, because the engine compartment isn't intended to be exposed to drivers, it's a diagnostic tool for mechanics.
four failing SRs I'm currently tracking that crash the console:
can you reproduce them on other systems? have you applied the lastest CU?
please report this stuff on connect, with massive details, so the product team can start to nail these things down. yes, service manager has bugs, but it also has a unique model for storing and presenting metadata about IT department in a meaningful way
for multiple use cases. Writing a page and a half about how bad your anecdotal experience isn't going to fix them, but providing documented, reproducible test cases absolutely will.
BOTTOM LINE: Maybe this isn't the product for your business. yes, it has sharp corners, and yes, it's got less polish then some of the other products that either implement half of it's features or predate it by 20+ years. it also
has incredible extensiblity and automation potential, and all of the tools needed to model your IT department in better resolution and with less effort then a lot of those other products.
if the "Aesthetics and Lack of Functionality" that you have presented here are the only considerations then you should switch to a simple software as a service offering for simple ticket management.
if, however, you're looking to implement a comprehensive, automatable, and ultimately easier to maintain service delivery operating system for your IT department, then you might want to take another swing at your processes and see if you can make them work
in service manager.

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Step 1
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
Step 2
In the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports (not "Diagnostic and Usage Messages") for crash reports related to the crashed process. The report name starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot. I know the report is long. Please post all of it anyway.
In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

Replacing Oracle's FIRST_VALUE and LAST_VALUE analytical functions.

Hi,
I am using OBI 10.1.3.2.1 where, I guess, EVALUATE is not available. I would like to know alternatives, esp. to replace Oracle's FIRST_VALUE and LAST_VALUE analytical functions.
I want to track some changes. For example, there are four methods of travel - Air, Train, Road and Sea. Would like to know traveler's first method of traveling and the last method of traveling in an year. If both of them match then a certain action is taken. If they do not match, then another action is taken.
I tried as under.
1. Get Sequence ID for each travel within an year per traveler as Sequence_Id.
2. Get the Lowest Sequence ID (which should be 1) for travels within an year per traveler as Sequence_LId.
3. Get the Highest Sequence ID (which could be 1 or greater than 1) for travels within an year per traveler as Sequence_HId.
4. If Sequence ID = Lowest Sequence ID then display the method of travel as First Method of Travel.
5. If Sequence ID = Highest Sequence ID then display the method of travel as Latest Method of Travel.
6. If First Method of Travel = Latest Method of Travel then display Yes/No as Match.
The issue is cells could be blank in First Method of Travel and Last Method of Travel unless the traveler traveled only once in an year.
Using Oracle's FIRST_VALUE and LAST_VALUE analytical functions, I can get a result like
Traveler | Card Issue Date | Journey Date | Method | First Method of Travel | Last Method of Travel | Match?
ABC | 01/01/2000 | 04/04/2000 | Road | Road | Air | No
ABC | 01/01/2000 | 15/12/2000 | Air | Road | Air | No
XYZ | 01/01/2000 | 04/05/2000 | Train | Train | Train | Yes
XYZ | 01/01/2000 | 04/11/2000 | Train | Train | Train | Yes
Using OBI Answers, I am getting something like this.
Traveler | Card Issue Date | Journey Date | Method | First Method of Travel | Last Method of Travel | Match?
ABC | 01/01/2000 | 04/04/2000 | Road | Road | <BLANK> | No
ABC | 01/01/2000 | 15/12/2000 | Air | <BLANK> | Air | No
XYZ | 01/01/2000 | 04/05/2000 | Train | Train | <BLANK> | No
XYZ | 01/01/2000 | 04/11/2000 | Train | <BLANK> | Train | No
Above, for XYZ traveler the Match? clearly shows a wrong result (although somehow it's correct for traveler ABC).
Would appreciate if someone can guide me how to resolve the issue.
Many thanks,
Manoj.

Hi,
Just to recap, in OBI 10.1.3.2.1, I am trying to find an alternative way to FIRST_VALUE and LAST_VALUE analytical functions used in Oracle. Somehow, I feel it's achievable. I would like to know answers to the following questions.
1. Is there any way of referring to a cell value and displaying it in other cells for a reference value?
For example, can I display the First Method of Travel for traveler 'ABC' and 'XYZ' for all the rows returned in the same column, respectively?
2. I tried RMIN, RMAX functions in the RDP but it does not accept "BY" clause (for example, RMIN(Transaction_Id BY Traveler) to define Lowest Sequence Id per traveler). Am I doing something wrong here? Why can a formula with "BY" clause be defined in Answers but not the RPD? The idea is to use this in Answers. This is in relation to my first question.
Could someone please let me know?
I understand that this thread that I have posted is related to something that can be done outside OBI, but still would like to know.
If anything is not clear please let me know.
Thanks,
Manoj.

Search and replace string function

Hello, I am using the "search and replace string" function and it does nt seem to work consistently for me. I am using it in a situation where I am taking an array of strings, converting this into a spreadsheet string then deleting all of the commas. Has anyone experienced the same behavior? I have searched through other posts and found other simular faults but none of the fixes worked for this. I can post the code it needed.
Thanks,
Andrew

I agree that commas are often not desirable, especially if your software should also work in countries where comma is used as a decimal seperator.
Where are the commas coming from? Does (1) each element of the original array have one (or more), do you (2) use comma as seperator if you convert it to a spreadhseet string?
For (1), you might just strip out the comma for each element right in the loop. For case (2) you would simply use a different separator to begin with, of course.
Btw: you are abusing a WHILE loop as a FOR loop, because you have a fixed number of iterations. Please replace it with a FOR loop. If you use a FOR loop, LabVIEW can manage memory much more efficiently, because it can allocate the entire output array before the loop starts. For While loops, the total number of iterations is not known to the compiler. (Of course a real program would also stop the loop if an error occurs. In this case you would need to stay woth the WHILE loop. )
Do you have a simple example how the raw array elements look like. How many commas are there?
LabVIEW Champion . Do more with less code and in less time .

How can I get my Apple Remote to play/pause and do other functions on all applications?

When I press the F8 button on my Macbook, it plays or pauses the media for whatever media application I have open, whether that's iTunes, VLC, or MPlayerX. Same goes for F7 and F9, which are backwards and forewards respectively.
Well I recently bought an Apple Remote and expected that the same thing would go for the remote; the play/pause button would give the same command as the F8 button, so I could use the remote on whatever application that also supported the F7, F8, and F9 buttons. But apparently, that's not the case; so far I've only been able to control iTunes.
So is there any setting I can change or program I need to install to have the Apple Remote buttons work just like the keyboard media buttons? I tried Remote Buddy, but that's not giving me specifically what I want since it's only designed to make specific programs compatible. But they still don't support for example MPlayerX, which is my default video player.

Gosh, that must explain why it didn't come with a magic hat!
I completely accept the fact that Apple designed it to do a limited set of functions, but in the post I asked if there was any program that I can install that causes it to do hit the function keys for me. There's already Remote Buddy, which intercepts remote signals and performs specific functions instead of the normal ones. How then can there not be a program that also intercepts them, but hits the function keys? Seems to me that that would be even easier than what Remote Buddy's doing.

can i play music and use mirroring function at same time from ipad2 to apple tv

Yes, any audio during the "mirroring" funtion will forward to the appletv. This includes all system audio, games, apps, ect. If you slide the mute botton the side of your ipad to mute then you can block app audio and just get Music audio or Pandora if you are using pandora.
