Very simple spreadsheet crashes Numbers?

Hi,
This very simple spreadsheet entered on the Mac version of Numbers onto iCloud, crashes Numbers on my iPad. Can somebody confirm that this is indeed an issue with Numbers, and not some quirk in my configuration?
Any suggestion to work that issue around?
Needless to say, this spreadsheet is an extreme reduction of a complex spreadsheet that does significant statistical data analysis on biochemistry experimental data coming from a spectrophotometer. That spreadsheet works beautifully on the Mac, and I would like to have it run on the iPad, for use in the lab.
The crash comes from this formula in the "Keep" columns:
=IF (NOT(Outlier '2'),y '2', "")
The slightly simpler formula without the "else" value crashes number too:
=IF (NOT(Outlier '2'),y '2')
Removing the "Keep" column altogether prevents Number from crashing...
Thanks a million

For the sake of it, I recreated that spreadsheet on the iPad directly, and of course, it doesn't crash...

I have numbers on my ipad and after the latest update I can't open a spreadsheet in it, a very important spreadsheet. I have rebooted a number of times but this does not seem to have fixed it can someone advise what I can do??

I have an ipad and have just downloaded the lastest update, now I have a very very important spreadsheet that will not open!!!! other spreadsheets open fine but for some just this one will not open. I have rebooted the ipad and tried re-syncing but to no avail, can anyone HELP?????

I had the same problem. I created an iCloud account and backed up my iPad to iCloud. I then went to www.iCloud.com, signed-in and then I was able to download my spread sheet data. At least I have my data.

I want help doing simple programing on numbers.

I am too lazy to try to learn it on my own. My first project would be to take the simple employee schedule template under Business in Numbers and modify it to add some sales projections. Very simple stuff. Is there a company tha

Under Numbers there is a template under Business that is labled Employee Schedule.
1. Overall the schedule is pretty good but the time for clocking in an employee only goes to 11. We are a restaurant/brewery we need clock in times as late at 9 PM and clock outs as late as 3 AM. Need that expanded.
2. I would like that spreadsheet to flood another spreadsheet immediately below the schedule that takes total gross salaries for each day. Start with Sunday thru Saturday. So whichever employee works on Sun gets added to the Sunday total. It would look like this, first column has the days of the week ie sun, mon, tues etc next column shows the expected total salaries for the day from the Employee Schedule.
3. Next column would have projected sales. This number would be filled in by the supervisor and he would guess sales volume for the day.
4. The next column would be the result of dividing total gross salaries for each day by the sales projection made by the supervisor. Top of the column would read salaries/sales.
5. There would also be a total for the week with salaries/sales as some days like Monday we will be over budget and on busy days like Friday, we would be under budget. As long as my supervisors balance to 20% I will be ok, at least for now:)
This Tool would help the supervisor to be able to set up and change sheduled hours either up or down to meet our goal of salaries not to exceed 20% of projected sales.
I can tell this is probably simple for someone that knows this stuff, but for me, hours of time and then never getting it right would be what would happen.
Thanks so much for your suggestion and I hope you or someone takes this on.

Problem with very simple 2 threads java application

Hi,
As fa as i'm concerned this is a thread licecycle:
1. thread created: it is dead.
2. thread started: it is now alive.
3. thread executes its run method: it is alive during this method.
4. after thread finishes its run method: it is dead.
No I have simple JUnit code:
public void testThreads() throws Exception {
WorkTest work = new WorkTest() {
public void release() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
public void run() {
for (int i=0;i<1000;i++){
log.debug(i+":11111111111");
//System.out.println(i+":11111111111");
WorkTest work2 = new WorkTest() {
public void release() {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
public void run() {
for (int i=0;i<1000;i++){
log.debug(i+":22222222222");
Thread workerThread = new Thread(work);
Thread workerThread2 = new Thread(work2);
workerThread.start();
//workerThread.join();
workerThread2.start();
//workerThread2.join();
And
public interface WorkTest extends Runnable {
public abstract void release();
And that's it..
On the console I see 999 iterations of both threads only if i uncomment
//workerThread.join();
//workerThread2.join();
In other case I see random number of iterations - JUNIT finishes and Thread1 made 54 and Thread2 233 iterations - the numbers are different every time i start the JUnit..
What I want? Not to wait until the first one finishes - I want them to start at the same time and they must FINISH their tasks...
Please help me asap :(

This is very simple... Look at your code:
workerThread.start();
workerThread.join();
workerThread2.start();
workerThread2.join();What are you doing here? You start the first thread, then you call join(), which waits until it finishes. Then after it's finished, you start the second thread and wait until it finishes. You should simply do this:
workerThread.start();
workerThread2.start();
workerThread.join();
workerThread2.join();I.e., you start the 2 threads and then you wait (first for the first one, then for the second one).

Very Simple Problem-- Need help in method selection process

Hello,
It's difficult to explain the background of the program I am making-- but I am stuck at a very simple problem, that I can only solve with a very long block of if statements:
I have 3 possible numbers-- 1, 2, or 3.
Imagine two numbers are already taken-- say 1 and 2. I want a variable to set itself to the number that's not taken (3).
So, again: If two numbers were taken say 2 or 3-- I want the variable to be sent to the other one that isn't taken-- 1.
Thank you for your help,
Evan.

Actually, I'll just tell you the context of the program-- here is what I have so far:
This program is meant to simulate Monty Hall Problem:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monty_Hall_problem
The program sets up an array of three possible values. Each one of those values represents a door with either a goat or a car behind it. It then randomly sets one of those values to 1 (in order to represent a car as per the Monty Hall problem), and 0's represent goats.
The user, which is simulated by the program (does not involve actual interaction), chooses a door initially.
The game show hosts then reveals a door that is not the users initial choice, but IS a goat ( an array value of 0).
For example if the array was [0][0][1]
The user could pick door one (array position 0). Which is a goat.
The game show host then reveals a goat that is not the users choice-- which would be array position 1.
After the game show host reveals the goat-- I want the user to always switch his decision to the only other remaining door that was not his first choice.
Then I wanted the computer to test to see if his final choice is the one with a car. And to tally up the amount of times he got it right.
--Sorry that was long winded:
import TerminalIO.*;//imports TerminalIO package for system.out.println
import java.util.*;//import java.util for random
public class Monty_Problem
     int doors[]= {0,0,0};
     Random rand= new Random();
     double wins,totals=0;
     public void carAssignment()
          int car_door= rand.nextInt(3);
          doors[car_door]=1;
     public int judgesChoice(int judgeDoor, int initialChoice)
          if(judgeDoor != initialChoice && doors[judgeDoor]!=1)
               return judgeDoor;
          else
               return judgesChoice(rand.nextInt(3), initialChoice); //infinite loop right here that I cannot remedy. I want the program to have the judge pick a location that is not occupied by a '1' and is not the user's choice.
     public void gamePlaySwitches()
          int initialChoice= rand.nextInt(3);
          int judgeDoor = 0;
          int secondChoice= 0;
          judgeDoor= judgesChoice(rand.nextInt(3), initialChoice);
          //This part is meant to have the user switch choices from his initial choice
               // to the only other choice that hasn't been revealed by the judge.
          while(secondChoice == initialChoice || secondChoice== judgeDoor)
               secondChoice++;
          if(doors[secondChoice]==1)
               wins++;
               totals++;
          else
               totals++;
     public static void main(String [] args)//creates the main menu
          Monty_Problem a= new Monty_Problem();
          int games=0;
          while(games!=100)
                    a.carAssignment();
                    a.gamePlaySwitches();

A very difficult challenge in Numbers

Morning.
I have a Numbers table, that calculates savings for future investments. But the investments take place surprisingly. That means, there are expenditures where no adequote savings has been done. In such case I want to diminish all the other savings proportionally.
Example:
For savings A monthly $100 are put aside. Savings in an amount of $2'000 has been done.
For savings B monthly $200 are put aside. Savings in an amount of $1'000 has been done.
For savings C monthly $50 are put aside. Savings in an amount of $400 has been done.
In summa there are savings in an amount of $3'400. But if now occasionally $1'000 of investments C must be done, the savings C are
in Minus by $600.
But savings can not be in Minus. Therefore the Minus must be absorbed by the savings A and B proportionally, e.g. A reduces to $1'600 and B reduces to $800.
How can I do that in Numbers.app?
IF (at least a cell is less than 0) THEN (set all these cells to 0 and sum the amounts lesser than 0) THEN (make the ratio of such amounts lesser the 0 to the sum of the positive savings) THEN (diminish all postitive savings by these ratio).
How to achieve this by a valid Numbers formula?
Kind regards, Friedrich

yes - you could use zsh, but why not use builtin ksh (for support)?
I keep all root history files different in discrete files so you don't accidentally have someone that tries to do a command recall on pattern matching - yielding different than expected results.
it's very simple, but has the obvious caviats if you set any particular user's shell to something other than Bourne static linked -
The syntax and variables can be changed to meet your own needs, near the top of my .profile I insert:
if [ ! -z "$TERM" -a -t 0 ] ; then
startdate=`date +%H%M%m%d%Y`
HISTFILE=$HOME/history/.sh_history.$startdate.`who am i|awk '{print $1"." $2}'|tr '/' '_'` ; export HISTFILE
fi
just setup a history directory for each user and they'll log there whenever they have a term

Is there a way to have a chart float so that it is visible as I enter data on a very long spreadsheet?

I am making a presentation to illustrate "normal distribution" (the bell curve). As I enter random numbers into a very long spreadsheet, I want the viewers to see the chart take shape. Is there a way to keep the chart visible as I move down the spreadsheet?
Thank you,
JMJKM

How about this for a rough idea (as in I did not try to make it look pretty):
Table 1 is a table of random numbers, as long a table as you want to use.
Table 2 uses NORMDIST to create the data points for the bell curve. The number of random numbers to include is given in cell D2, for which a stepper or slider would be a good choice. The average and standard deviation for the chosen data points are created as follows:
average =AVERAGE(OFFSET(Table 1::A2,0,0,D2))
stddev =STDEV(OFFSET(Table 1::A2,0,0,D2))
Those two values are used in the NORMDIST functions in column B. I don't know if I used the function correctly but it sounds like you already know how to create a bell curve from the random numbers.
Nothing moves around so there is no scrolling required. Place the chart in view and use the slider/stepper to include more data points.

What does 'kernel bug in process suhelperd' mean in very simple terms please

what does 'kernel bug in process suhelperd' mean in very simple terms please

Hi,
Any that ends in a "d" tends to be a dameon process used by the System as a whole.
As in launchd is the process that make sure all the Extensions and Kexts that run the OS are started.
helper would refer to a specific thing (the info you posted offers no reference to that and I don't know off the top of my head)
The su would probably refer to the permissions this item has at that moment in time (su is normally a Terminal Instruction allowing temporary but high level access).
Without more info about a possible link to an action within the OS or an app it would be hard to say if it is a real concern.
It seems to refer to a conflict. It could be that the item is not written for the current OS, is outdated via Upgrades for instance, or written in a way that is now Protected by the way the current OS works.
Console Messages can be helpful when you can attribute them to specific events such as a Crash Log or the Action in an App matching a Time in the Log (you generally have to be watching).

Secure a spreadsheet in numbers iOS

Is there anyway to lock a spreadsheet in numbers on iPad, simple to do in excel but when I transfer it to numbers the pass code requirement is lost?

Hello and thanks, but what I actually wonder is, not how you password protect a file, but how you lock it for input (until you unlock it). I can do that on my MacBook and when I open the file on my iPad it is indeed locked for input: tapping on it provoces an 'Unlock?' bubble tapping which unlocks the the file. But then: how do I relock it after some input into the file? I should have posed my question in a clearer manner, sorry. But thanks anyway!

Yes, you need to add a servlet -mapping element and adjust your form to submit to the appropriate URL mapping.

<servlet-name>HelloWorldServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/servlet/Hello</url-pattern>

Why do you need a expensive MacBook Pro?
Your attending high school and unless everyone else is rich also your likely going to be a target by the more poorer students for theft or damage to the machine.
You could keep it home, but if you need it for class then your exposed again.
Also at that age your not very careful yet, a MacBook Pro is a expensive and easily damaged machine.
Unless your made of money and so are others at your school, I would recommned a low profile, just does the job cheap Windows PC.
If it dies, gets lost, stolen or damaged because of your inexperince handling senstivie electronics then it's no big deal.
You can buy a Mac later on when your sure you have a need for it, currently there isn't much advantage of owning a Mac compared to a PC, they do just about the same things now, one just looks prettier than the other.
Since 95% of the world uses Windows PC's your going to have to install Windows on the Mac in order to keep your skills up there or be unemployed, so it's a extra headache and expense.
good luck

How to open Excel spreadsheet in Numbers.

Hey Kids:
I have trouble opening imported Excel spreadsheets in Numbers on my iMac. I have Mountain Lion 10.8.2. Previously I tried a demo of Office Mac that has expired. When I try to open an Excel spreadsheet I get a message to buy Office Mac. I've tried to put the demo application in the trash but I still can't open the Excel spreaddsheet and get a message that Excel is in the trash and can't open the spreadsheet.
HELP!

In addition to what Niel said...
In the Finder, click on an Excel file (.xls) to select it, press command-I to Get Info.
In the Info window, expand the Open with...section.
Click the pop-up menu bar in that section and choose Numbers '09.
Click the Change All button below the menu.
Repeat with a current version (.xlsx) file.
Regards,
Barry
PS: Unless you have something vital that you're storing in the Trash, you might also want to Empty the Trash to get rid of the Excel trial that's expired.

I read similar problem in the this thread:
Re: message driven bean on ejb 3.0 does not work
some one said that the version in ejb-jar.xml must be changed from 2.1 to 3.0
but in this case there is no ejb-jar.xml.
( I have other cases with ejb-jar.xml file but I can't change the version in ejb-jar.xml)
the version in web.xml is 2.4 but it not accept any value except 2.4 and an error occur when I tried to change it to 3.0
please can you tell me why I get NullPointerException and how can I allow EJB 3.0 MDB and JMS to work in JDeveloper

Note that you can't run MDBs in the embedded OC4J in JDeveloper - try deploying to a stand-alone install of OC4J and see if it works there.
