Can I calculate average of a column which I created from another calculation?

Hi all,

Thank you all for responses to my question and for reading them,

I post a question about creating a third column which is derived from the two values in same row. Now the question is to calculate the average of this column. How can I calculate the average?

 

Thank you.

I am able to display the total.

I am using a list to display this data and I want to display the average out side the list. (Just below the list). I am calculating the third column using the "total sold" and "total in stock" columns

1 Answer:

If you have the total, just use the .divide() to find the average.

One question is I can create total just by drag and drop that % field in my report but can I store it in any variable just like I do in programming language ?? Further I want to use this stored variable value in my calculation can I do this ?? If I can How ???
Some pointers or some examples needed if you can provide any that would be great help.

When you drag and drop and create SUM, Jaspersoft Studio will create a variable (ie. $V{}.
Read up on using Variables in Jaspersoft Studio in "Jaspersoft Studio user Guide" Chapter 9: Variables

The trouble is that sum variable is inside a list and the total part that I am showing is outside the list, Now I created a third column dynamically and I want to calculate the average of this third column outside the list. is it possible?
