Crosstabs includes missing values - missing-data

When I make a cross tab (using SPSS version 22), my missing values are included (see image below). This is something I do not want. If anyone could tell me how I could exclude the missing values that would be great :)

Edit: It looks like your variable como_af is a string. String variables do not have missing values, they just have blanks. You might want to consider recoding it into a numeric variable for easier analysis:
if como_af = "Yes" como_af_num = 1.
if como_af = "No" como_af_num = 2.
if como_af = "" como_af_num = $sysmis.
or alternatively:
recode como_af ("Yes"=1) ("No"=2) (""=sysmis) into como_af_num.
now if you cross nihss_mild by como_af_num, the blanks (now sysmis) will be excluded.

As Martin mentioned, you need to set your user-missing values.
I'll just mention that for String variables (such as in your case), system-missing values (blanks) are not considered missing by default. If your variable were Numeric, blanks would automatically be considered missing.
To set empty values in a String variable to missing you can use:
MISSING VALUES comor_AF (" ") .
Edit: Martin's updated solution does the trick too.

Change Column Values in a Dataframe column using Pandas

The data type of the column is object. but, i still map it to string using astype(str). even used temp['Injury Severity'].str.strip() to remove spaces from column values.
enter image description here
I want to replace all "Fatal(0)",Fatal(1)"... with only "Fatal". so i used.temp['Injury Severity'] = temp['Injury Severity'].replace('Fatal(0)','Fatal',inplace = True).
But did not work. i also tried temp.loc[temp['Injury Severity'] == 'Fatal(0)','Injury Severity'] = temp['Injury Severity'].replace('Fatal(0)','Fatal',inplace = True)
In addition is tried str.replace but did not work out.lastly also used regex = True but no changes was observed.It still remains the same.
I think it is solved. It seems that the values were having leading and trailing spaces in the name of values.Thanks alot for the help everyone !!
Try This,
temp['Injury Severity'].replace('Fatal(0)','Fatal',inplace = True)
No need to assign it again.

SSRS - Number format expression not working

I have a table in my database called systemconfig which has some configs that I'll use on my reports. The idea is, instead of adjusting the 'number formats' directly in the textboxes properties of the report, I just change a value in this table, and then through a custom expression in the format property, it gets the value from this table
The query of the dataset 'ds_DecimalValues' is like this:
DECLARE #DecimalValue Nvarchar(500)
SELECT #DecimalValue =
( SELECT Value as 'DecimalValue' FROM SystemConfig WHERE Key = Decimal_Value )
SELECT
DecimalValue = #DecimalValue
ok, the result of this query is ##
In the textbox properties I have this expression in the Format line:
=First(Fields!DecimalValue.Value, "ds_DecimalValue")
But the report is showing 2 decimal values instead of none. I'm not sure if the decimal values are correct on the systemconfig table, I assume that '##' is correct to show no decimal values but I'm not sure about it. Any ideas guys??
Regards.
Would something like this work for you? Should round it to the nearest integer
=Floor(First(Fields!DecimalValue.Value, "ds_DecimalValue"))
When I have done this in the past I would typically use someting like f0 or n0 as the format code.
Try using this instead of ##.
If this does not work then a couple of things to debug.
Add a textbox that contains the same expression as you are using in your format property expression, make sure it is returning what you expect
Type the format code directly in and make sure that it formats as you expected.
remember that you don't need to use quotes when using codes like f0 etc.

How to remove several symbols from a string in BiqQuery

I have strings which contain numbers like that:
a20cdac0_19221bdc12022bab3fe05a43df4a7dbe
I need to get only symbols after underscore symbol:
19221bdc12022bab3fe05a43df4a7dbe
Unfortunately, the amount of those symbols is always different, so I can't use just RIGHT function.
I know that probably REGEXP might help, but I can't understand how to use that exactly. Will be very grateful for the help.
Below is for BigQuery Standard SQL (using regexp)
regexp_extract(value, r'_(.*)') regexp_approach
if to apply to sample value from your question
regexp_extract('a20cdac0_19221bdc12022bab3fe05a43df4a7dbe', r'_(.*)') regexp_approach
result is
Yet, another regexp option is to use regexp_replace as in below example
regexp_replace(value, r'^.*?_', '')
Note: using split in this case is also an option unless you have more than one _ in which case you will get part between first and second _
split(value, '_')[safe_offset(1)]
Also, as you can see you need to use safe to prevent error in cases when _ is absent
You can use the split function like this
select split('a20cdac0_19221bdc12022bab3fe05a43df4a7dbe','_')[ORDINAL(2)];

How to append to a list in Automation Anywhere 10.5?

The list starts empty. Then I want to append an value to it for each iteration in a loop if certain condition is met. I don't see append option in Variable Operation.
You can use string split for this, assuming you know of a delimiter that won't ever be in your list of values. I've used a semi-colon, and $local_joinedList$ starts off empty.
If (certain condition is met)
Variable Operation: $local_joinedList$;$local_newValue$ To $local_joinedList$
End If
String Operation: Split "$local_joinedList$" with delimiter ";" and assign output to $my-list-variable$
This overwrites $my-list-variable$.
If you need to append to an existing list, you can do it the same way by using String Join first, append your values to the string, then split it again afterward.
String Operation: Join elements of "$my-list-variable$" by delimiter ";" and assign output to $local_joinedList$
Lists are buggy in Automation Anywhere and have been buggy for several versions. I suggest not using them and instead use XML.
It it a much more versatile approach and allows you to do much more that with lists. You can search, filter, insert, delete etc.
For the example you mention, you would use the "Insert Node" command.
Throwing in my 2 cents as well - my-list-variable appears to be the only mutable in size list you can work with. From my experience with 10.7, it only grows though.
So if you made a list with 60 values, and you wanted to use my-list-variable again for 55, you'll need to clear out those remaining 5 values and create an if condition when looping over the list to ensure the values are not whatever you set those 5 values to be.
I used lime's answer as a reference (thanks lime!) to populate a list variable from some data in an Excel spreadsheet.
Here's my automation for it:

What is the meaning of having a variable="+" ? SAS (sql)

I'm new to SAS and I'm trying to understand a code:
if MAP_ID="+" then output WORK.0201_template;
else
do;
SHEET_ID=MAP_ID;
output WORK.0201_template_f;
end;
What does it mean the MAP_ID="+"? Does it mean that it search on the table for the values where MAP_ID=+, or does it have another menaing?
Thanks
The MAP_ID="+" is a boolean expression that compares the value the variable MAP_ID to the character string literal "+". It will be true when they are the same and false otherwise.
I suspect that the main purpose of this code is to split the data into two different output datasets based on the value of MAP_ID.
It also is changing the value of SHEET_ID. That type of code also looks like something that is designed to carry forward the value of MAP_ID in a retained field SHEET_ID. If I am right then the meaning of the value of + is to keep the same sheet_id. But we would need to seem more of the code and the data to really tell.
