The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

MicroStrategy Filter setup Sample Size

Asked by neatwork in MicroStrategy, Business Management Software, Quality Assurance

Hi everybody,

I have a question since I'm going to set up a report using filter but I'm running into issues because I want to display my sample size N. More details:

Assume having an attribute which is a measurement with a range from -1000 to 1000. The metric for this attribute measurement counts the number of values for each measurement value. So measurement is like -1000, -999, -998......998, 999, 1000. Combined with the metric: -1000 -> 10, -999 -> 0, 199 -> 10...1000 -> 0. If the metric results are displayed you get a distribution or histogram which tells you whether you measurement is within specific limits - lets say the limits are between -100 and 100. All the values beyond -100 and 100 are outliers.

What I want to do: I want to display only the distribution of values between -100 and 100 in a graph and table view. But I want to know how many values are not within the limits.
So I assumed it might be right not to set a report filter but set a view filter. According to the manual the view filter leads to a metric calculation for all values between -1000 and 1000 and not only between -100 and 100. How can I count AND display within my report the whole sample size of counted values between -1000 and 1000 which is the real sample size?

Any suggestions are appreciated!

Nicole
