Ideas on creating calculation to summarize number of categories from repeat group

Support
1

Hi all,
I'm trying to ask a question within a repeat group:

What category does this person belong to?

  1. a
  2. b
  3. c
  4. d

After closing the repeat group, I'd like to create variable's counting the
number of each category on the main table:
Number of category a:
Number of category b:
and so on

I'm feeling a little dumb. Could anyway donate their thoughts on how
they would do this expression/calculation?

Thanks!
Bill

If you have a repeat group 'rpt', with the category selection question 'q1'
:

/data/rpt/q1

Then you should be able to do something like

count(/data/rpt[q1='a'])

to get the count of category a selections

etc.

Things are much more difficult if you have a multiple-choice selection.
I'll leave that to you...

The available functions are http://opendatakit.org/help/form-design/binding/

Note that select-one and select-multiple values are always strings, so even
if the string values for the selection choices are entirely digits, you
will need to convert them to numbers should you want to do any calculations
with them.

Thanks Mitch!

Despite the very clear answer, I can't get this to work and my calculation
always returns a zero. Could ask you or any other kind soul to take a look
at my xls and tell me what I'm being stupid about:

end repeat

calculate

Count of Consultation Externe

count(/data/superviseesr[superviseefunctiongrp='Consultation Externe'])

Hi

You need to count the variable not the label assigned to that variable. So

count(/data/superviseesr[superviseefunctiongrp='1'])

As I suspected...

/GrilledeSupervisionFINAL12/superviseesr/supervisees/superviseefunctiongrp
is the path to the variable in question.

count(/GrilledeSupervisionFINAL12/superviseesr/supervisees[superviseefunctiongrp='1'])
is probably what you want.

Hi all,
I'm trying to ask a question within a repeat group:

What category does this person belong to?

  1. a
  2. b
  3. c
  4. d

After closing the repeat group, I'd like to create variable's
counting the number of each category on the main table:
Number of category a:
Number of category b:
and so on

I'm feeling a little dumb. Could anyway donate their thoughts on
how they would do this expression/calculation?

Thanks!
Bill
