Are you familiar with SQL? This way you could avoid the issue with Other Info having different indices for different keys. You could build a query for JMP table to get it into this format:
Then create summary and split tables and join them together
summary:
split:
split updated to summary:
Names Default To Here(1);
dt = Current Data Table();
dt_query = Query(
Table(dt, "INFO"),
"\[
select t1.assay, t1."Useful info 2" as "Control Lot number",
t1."Useful info 4" as "Control result", t1."Value for other info", t2."Value for other info"
from INFO t1
join INFO t2 on "Result for " || t1."Other info" = t2."Other info" and t1.assay = t2.assay
]\"
);
dt_summary = dt_query << Summary(
Group(:Assay, :Control Lot number, :Control result),
Freq("None"),
Weight("None"),
Link to original data table(0)
);
dt_split = dt_query << Split(
Split By(:Value for other info),
Split(:Value for other info 2),
Group(:Assay),
Remaining Columns(Drop All),
Sort by Column Property
);
dt_summary << Update(With(dt_split), Match Columns(:Assay = :Assay));
//Close(dt_summary, No save);
Edit:
I had to recode original data columns Other info "Useful info X" values to "useful info X" (lowercase) to make query work. It could also be done in SQL query
I would do this in couple of parts
- Getting Assay, Control Lot Number and Control Result can be done fairly easily with summary
- Getting rest is a bit more difficult as the Other info indices change (if they were always same this should would be most likely fairly simple Recode and Split)
- Depending on grouping (assay only? assay + control lot number?) I would loop over the data table and add values as I go using associative arrays
Code is very messy (partially due to not able to use For Each and me being lazy):
