adding two columns and doing sum in JSL

fr2007 — Wed, 29 Aug 2012 13:59:05 GMT

i have an excel sheet with the following rows and columns:

Numbers	Red	Blue	Black	Green
7006	1	0	1	2
7009	1	2	3	4
7012	1	4	5	6
7015	1	6	7	8
7018	1	8	9	10
7021	1	10	11	12
7024	1	12	13	14
7027	1	14	15	16
7030	1	16	17	18
7033	1	18	19	20
7036	1	20	21	22
7039	1	22	23	24

now i need to add two columns namely red+blue and black+green and count the total of red+blue for each number and place in the resultant column..and same with the second column too..my result should be

Numbers	Red	Blue	Black	Green	red+blue	black+green
7006	1	0	1	2	1	3
7009	1	2	3	4	3	7
7012	1	4	5	6	5	11
7015	1	6	7	8	7	15
7018	1	8	9	10	9	19
7021	1	10	11	12	11	23
7024	1	12	13	14	13	27
7027	1	14	15	16	15	31
7030	1	16	17	18	17	35
7033	1	18	19	20	19	39
7036	1	20	21	22	21	43
7039	1	22	23	24	23	47

can some one help me with the code?

Assuming you know how to import (or just paste) your table into JMP, it is pretty straight-forward. The example below illustrates two approaches 1) static columns and 2) column formulas. The latter will update the sum if values are changed, the former will not.

//Make example table

dt=New Table( "Colors",

Add Rows( 3 ),

New Column( "Numbers",

Numeric,

Continuous,

Format( "Best", 4 ),

Set Selected,

Set Values( [7006, 7009, 7012] )

New Column( "Red",

Numeric,

Continuous,

Format( "Best", 12 ),

Set Selected,

Set Values( [1, 1, 1] )

New Column( "Blue",

Numeric,

Continuous,

Format( "Best", 12 ),

Set Selected,

Set Values( [0, 2, 4] )

New Column( "Black",

Numeric,

Continuous,

Format( "Best", 12 ),

Set Selected,

Set Values( [1, 3, 5] )

New Column( "Green",

Numeric,

Continuous,

Format( "Best", 12 ),

Set Selected,

Set Values( [2, 4, 6] )

)

);

//Alternative 1: static columns

dt<<new column("Red+Blue", continious);

dt<<new column("Black+Green", continious);

for each row(:Name("Red+Blue")=:Red+:Blue);

for each row(:Name("Black+Green")=:Black+:Green);

//Alternative 2: Column formulas

dt<<new column("Red+Blue2", continious, Formula(:Red+:Blue));

dt<<new column("Black+Green2", continious, Formula(:Black+:Green));
