[NTG-context] max function in spreadsheettable

[NTG-context] max function in spreadsheettable

[juh+ntg-context--- via ntg-context]

Dear all,

I have a cell that calculates a value that may not be a negative value. 
If it is a negatiive value the cell should show zero.


\startcell[style=normal]
@ "0.2f EUR" $pauschale.eintag$ - ((D[row] * (0.2  * 
$pauschale.vororttag$)) + (E[row] * (0.4  * $pauschale.vororttag$)) + 
(F[row] * (0.4  * $pauschale.vororttag$)))
\stopcell

The $-variables will get resolved by Pandoc before ConTeXt comes into play.

As far as I understood the handdbook spreadsheets-mkiv.pdf it is 
possible to define lua functions inside a cell.

Who would you implement a max function that sets the value to 0 if it is 
negative?

TIA
juh

P.S. For German speakers: We try to implement a Reisekostenformular.

I’d advise against using the spreadsheet module and for CLD, i.e. 
creating the table from the Lua end. How that works from Markdown 
metadata (that I know you’re using) I’m not sure. It might make sense to 
avoid the Pandoc step and read Markdown or whatever input format with Lua.

WRT German: if you setup a decimal comma with the spreadsheet module, 
all dots get replaced by commas, e.g. in abbreviations – one reason to 
avoid that module.

Otherwise it should be possible to define that function in Lua and use 
it in the table.

I guess you know the cld-mkiv manual?

I know that it is there. ;-)

I'll try to reimplement the document with cld.

First question:

local sum = string.format("%0.2f", (0.3 * 100))

Gives 30.00

how do I get 30,00

juh

local sum = string.formatters["%0.2M"](0.3 * 100)

Thanks a lot, Hans.

I can't find "string.formatters" and the format string %0.2M online or 
in the Lua-Manual. Any hint where I can find more about this? As commas 
as decimal separator might be a common wish, I would like to document it 
somewhere in the Wiki, if I could find some context.

Ciao!
juh

The function is documented in the "Context Lua documents" (cld-mkiv.pdf) 
manual.

For decimal comma in \unit and \digits, see

https://wiki.contextgarden.net/Command/setupunit [method=1] % or 3
and \setdigitmode{1} which is not documented (apparently missing in 
interface, at least in the wiki version).

Indeed. Obviously I was way too tired yesterday.
Thanks!

This does not work here with numbers with more than three digits.

\starttext
\startluacode
context(string.formatters["%0.2M"](1000))
\stopluacode
\stoptext

Gives 10.2000,00

context(string.formatters["%M"](1000))

Gives the right result. But I am still confused.

You can't specify the precision but it's possible to set the thousand 
separator
(no idea for the rule what can be used as separator).

\starttext
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](1)}
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](10)}
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](100)}
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](1000)}
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](10000)}
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](100000)}
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](1000000)}
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](10000000)}
\cldcontext{string.formatters["\letterpercent .m"](100000000)}
\stoptext
