Hi All,

Can anyone explain what is the difference between interval match and class function?

Regards,

Kush

With intervalmatch you have a table with lower and upper bound. Like 1 till 3, 4 till 6, 7 till 9, 10 till 15, 16 till 20, ...With Class each bound has the same interval (ex. 5 - 1 till 5, 6 till 10, 11 till 15, 16 till 20, ...)

if you have a filed then we can divide it into ranges ussing class function

ex:

a 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

if i write Class(a,2) then result will be

0 <=  x < 2
2 <= x < 4
4 <= x < 6
6 <= x < 8
8 <= x < 10
10 <= x < 12

12 <= x < 14

i mean it create you a bucket

where as Interval match matches time with intervals

for example

OrderLog

Start

End

Order

01:00

03:35

02:30

07:58

03:04

08:00

Start of shift 2

11:43

5

End of production

First load the two tables as usual, then link the field Time to the time intervals defined by the fields Start and End:

Select * from OrderLog;

Select * from Eventlog;

IntervalMatch ( Time ) select Start, End from OrderLog;

The following table box could now be created in QlikView:
