Executing of values till leaf node.

Dear Experts,

This are my input tables

Input Table:

StemLeaf
AA1
BB1
CC1
DD1
B1B2
C1C2
D1D2
C2C3
D2D3

I have given to analyse for Stem (A,B,C,D)

Step 1- I need to find Leaf value of Stem (A,B,C,D)  i.e (A1,B1,C1,D1)

Step 2- Find these values in Stem & corresponding leaf values i.e (B2,C2,D2)

Note- If corresponding value is not found  in Step 2 like for A1 then its null

Above steps should be performed till all leaf are found in loop with first iteration as Level2 then Level 3 & so on.

Data Table:

LeafValue
A110
B120
C130
D140
B250
C260
D270
C380
D390

The Result should be look like this, so that we will be able to make a drill group with all levels & get corresponding values as shown:

  Output :

Level0Level1ValueLevel2ValueLevel3Value
AA110----
BB1-B250--
CC1-C2-C380
DD1-D2-D390

'I have tried using left join to make Level but the logic failed at Level 2.

Also I m not able to retain null values as in above Note'


Thanks & Regards

Ahmar

Try this:

input:

load * inline [

Stem,Leaf

A,A1

B,B1

B,B2

C,C1

D,D1

B1,B2

B1,B3

C1,C2

D1,D2

C2,C3

D2,D3

D3,D4

D4,D5

D4,D6

];

left join (input)

values:

load * inline [

Leaf, Value

A1, 10

B1, 20

C1, 30

D1, 40

B2, 50

C2, 60

D2, 70

C3, 80

D3, 90

];

//cheat using the hierarchy belongs to to sus out our layers

HierarchyBelongsTo:

HierarchyBelongsTo (Node, Parent, NodeName, AncestorID, AncestorName, DepthDiff)

Load

  Leaf as Node ,

  Leaf as NodeName,

  Stem as Parent

resident input;

//create a layers table to we can figure out which layer we want to load

LEFT JOIN (input)

LOAD DISTINCT Node as Leaf, max(DepthDiff)+1 as MaxDepth

Resident HierarchyBelongsTo

GROUP BY Node;

//figure out our max depth we need to work to

MaxLayers:

LOAD max(MaxDepth) as MaxLayers

resident input;

LET vLayers = peek('MaxLayers');

//drop working table

DROP TABLE MaxLayers;

//LOAD our top layer which won't have a record in the layers table

HierarchyMain:

LOAD DISTINCT Stem as Layer0

resident input

WHERE NOT EXISTS (Node,Stem);

//now run our loop

for i=1 to $(vLayers)

let x = $(i)-1;

LEFT JOIN (HierarchyMain)

LOAD Stem as 'Layer$(x)',Leaf as 'Layer$(i)', Value as 'Value$(i)'

resident input

WHERE MaxDepth = $(i) ;

next i;

//drop working table

DROP TABLE HierarchyBelongsTo;

DROP TABLE input;

Hi Adam,

It is possible to load all values i.e Value1, Value2...... on single field like Value.

I don't quite understand, do you mean the SUM of all values? so a single total value for the row?

we want to get the coresponding value for all the layers as in Data table

in a single column

OK so in your example for your row C value = 170?

when we click on  C value = 80 not 170.

Ok so the value column should show the value for the lowest leaf in the row?

Yes

Ok I will have a think when I get a moment, it must be pretty easy to do as you just add a column called 'lowestleaf' and join that to the value table
