Outliers of data

I have a project where it is necessary to determine Outliers of lab
results and looking for some pointers on the best way to handle this
type of calculation with PostgreSQL. Possibly an operator? I have no
experience with that. I found some info on the web for calculating
Outliers, here is one of them...

Hi Robert,

You may want to consider the R language interface (pl/R); R (the
language) has great tools for detecting and operating on outliers.

I had some code that worked fine for several weeks, and then yesterday it stopped working. I'm not sure what I did. Nor can I make out why it isn't working. I'm running a query that should return 3 items from the database. I then get a count of the return, which correctly tells me that I've got 3 items. I then go into a for loop which I expect to loop 3 times and print out the 3 items. Here is where things get strange: it loops 3 times and...

I am having a problem reading a simple update to the database. Basically I'm testing a small change to the pubs database -- changing the price of the Busy Executive's Database Guide from 19.99 to 1997 and back. Unfortunately, it seems does reflect the change on my web form. Perhaps it's caching the data retrieved by the SQLDataAdapter? (All of my code is generated by VS.NET '03. FYI, it works fine when I test on my developer...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers. The idea...
