This article describes how to create a complicated filter with nested conditions in Displayr. Filters can be created out of any of the below data types:
- Numeric ranges
- Single and multiple-response categories
- Aggregated and calendar date period ranges
- Text content
In this example, we wish to create a filter for the following set of group conditions:
- Males under 35 (Nominal crosstab)
- Number of Coca-Cola cans/bottles drunk while out and about is greater or equal to 5 (Numeric)
- Aware of any Coke brands (Binary - Multi)
OR:
- Interviewed after 1/1/2012 (Date/Time)
- Preferred cola is a Coke brand (Nominal)
OR:
- Mentioned EITHER Coke OR Coca-Cola for Spontaneous Awareness (Text)
Requirements
- A Displayr document containing a data set.
- A set of variables to be included in a filter.
