Map values in a range

[#1]

I remember QlikView has such function, but I forgot where I saw it.

Status_mapping_tab:

Load * inline [

GreaterThan,LessThan,StatusName

0,5,Good

6,10,Normal

10,100,Bad

];

Assume here has a table like above one, which include the value range for performance report.

If the value is in the range (defined as >=GreaterThan and <=LessThan), than value can be mapped to that type.

E,g:

If the web page response time less than 5 second, performance is "Good“, if >=6 and <=10 second, "Normal". Otherwise, ‘Bad'

So, is there any function can be used as FunctionName([Mapping Name], [value]).

E.g:

     FunctionName('Status_mapping_tab', 4.5) = Good

     FunctionName('Status_mapping_tab', 8.5) = Normal

BTW, as I know, mapping & applymap() are used for a single value, instead of range. If I am wrong, please correct me.

I think you want to make an IntervalMatch:

MockUpData:

Load round(rand()*100) as ResponseTime autogenerate 30;

Status_mapping_tab:

Load * inline [

GreaterThan,LessThan,StatusName

0,5,Good

6,10,Normal

10,100,Bad];

IntervalMatch:

IntervalMatch (ResponseTime) Load GreaterThan,LessThan resident Status_mapping_tab ;
