In a survey that I'm running I ask someone what age they started school and what age they finished school.
I currently ask them how many years they have been in school, but I'm wondering if I can automatically caluclate that using the two numerical responses for the age started and age finished school?
I'm asking the question in an array with a age started, age finish and number of years in school as three questions on the y-scale.
Is this something I could do with the expression manager?
I've attached the .lss file with only this question I am working on.
This is definitely something for Expression Manager. Have a look at the example of the BMI calculator. I am sure you can use parts of it for what you need (which is much simpler than the BMI calculator).
Help us to help you!
Provide your LS version and where it is installed (own server, uni/employer, SaaS hosting, etc.).
Always provide a LSS file (not LSQ or LSG).
