how to get previous value?


Hi folks,

I have a Table like this below

ID NAMEVALUE
1A4000
2B2800
3C1000
4D8000
5E4500
6F7000

Here I want a Chart with Expression of

Expression : Avg(VALUE) - Avg(Previous VALUE)

i want out put like while calculating avg(value)-avg(previous value)

here avg(value) is talking rowno 1 - previous value is not there

avg(value) means rowno 2- previous value(rowno 1)   =  rowno 2 - row no 1

avg(value) means rowno 3-previous value(rowno 2 ) rowno 3- row no 2

avg(value) means rowno 4-previous value(rowno 3 ) rowno 4- row no 3

here(-)  is minus .

s i agree with that,

my orginal expr looks like

avg(sum(metricvalue)/10000- avg(sum(metricvalue)/10000

in this situtaion  metricvalue  should come

40000 -0  =4000

2800-4000

is your above expression calculate or not ?

HEy,

You may do like:

Avg(Value) - Avg({<ID = (ID - 1 )>}Value) ;

You may have to look the syntax .
