This document discusses formatting options for output in ABAP report programs. It introduces color output options, icon/symbol/line options, page and column headers. Specific topics covered include using 7 predefined colors, generating horizontal and vertical lines, setting list formats, and creating headers using the TOP-OF-PAGE event.
Encodable: Configurable Grammar for Visualization ComponentsKrist Wongsuphasawat
There are so many libraries of visualization components nowadays with their APIs often different from one another. Could these components be more similar, both in terms of the APIs and common functionalities? For someone who is developing a new visualization component, how should the API look like? This work drew inspiration from visualization grammar, decoupled the grammar from its rendering engine and adapted it into a configurable grammar for individual components called Encodable. Encodable helps component authors define grammar for their components, and parse encoding specifications from users into utility functions for the implementation.

Presented in this short document is a description of what is called the (classic) “Pooling Optimization Problem” and was first described in Haverly (1978) where he modeled a small distillate blending problem with three component materials (A, B, C), one pool for mixing or blending of only two components, two products (P1, P2) and one property (sulfur, S) as well as only one time-period. The GAMS file of this exact same problem is found in Appendix A which describes all of the sets, lists, parameters, variables and constraints required to represent this problem. Related types of NLP sub-models can also be found in Kelly and Zyngier (2015) where they formulate other sub-types of continuous-processes such as blenders, splitters, separators, reactors, fractionators and black-boxes for adhoc or custom sub-models.
This presentation shows how to use Microsoft Excel to analyze data. It covers basics, formulas, ranges, formatting, functions, charts, and pivots.
Examples are provided for more than 200 concepts introduced to users of MS Excel to enable them in analyzing and visualizing their data using this powerful and widely available tool.
Examples are also available in an MS Excel spreadsheet.

Week 2 iLab TCO 2 — Given a simple problem, design a solutio.docxmelbruce90096
Week 2 iLab
TCO 2 — Given a simple problem, design a solution algorithm that uses arithmetic expressions and built-in functions.
Scenario
Your goal is to solve the following simple programming exercise. You have been contracted by a local antique store to design an algorithm determining the total purchases and sales tax. According to the store owner, the user will need to see the subtotal, the sales tax amount, and the total purchase amount. A customer is purchasing four items from the antique store. Design an algorithm where the user will enter the price of each of the four items. The algorithm will determine the subtotal, the sales tax, and the total purchase amount. Assume the sales tax is 7%.
Be sure to think about the logic and design first (input-process-output (IPO) chart, flowchart, and pseudocode). Display all output using currency formatting.
Advanced (optional): Use a constant for the 7% sales tax.

Week 2 Activity—Game Seating Charges
TCO 2—Given a simple problem, design a solution algorithm that uses arithmetic expressions and built-in functions.
Assignment
Your goal is to solve the following simple programming exercise. You have been contracted by a local stadium to design an algorithm determining the total seating charges for any game held at the stadium. Lower-level seats cost $25 per seat, mid-level seats cost $15 per seat, and upper-level seats cost $10 per seat. The algorithm should ask the user for the number of seats being purchased in each seating level. Then, the algorithm will determine the total for each level and a grand total for the enti.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

You can use any of the following FORMAT options: COLOR <n> [ON|OFF] Colors the line background INTENSIFIED[ON|OFF] Intensify colors YES|NO INVERSE [ON|OFF] Inverse: Background/text color HOTSPOT [ON|OFF] Display mouse pointer as hand and single click with mouse button (used with AT LINE-SELECTION ) RESET Resets all formats to their default values The formats set with FORMAT take effect with the next WRITE statement. You can use all FORMAT options with the WRITE statement, but the options will affect only the one field in which they appear. FORMAT options in a WRITE statement change the global formatting instructions (set with a FORMAT statement) for the field.
You can use the AS SYMBOL option of the WRITE statement to include symbols in lists. The symbolic names of these characters are defined in include program <symbol> . You can also insert icons into the list with WRITE <f> AS ICON . To do this, you have to link the include program <icon> in your program. You can link the include program <list> to use both symbols and icons in the list. You can find an overview of available symbols and icons in the online documentation or in the statement examples for WRITE . To generate a horizontal line, use the ULINE statement, system field sy-uline in a WRITE statement. To generate a vertical line, use system field sy-vline in a WRITE statement
Use the additions LINE-SIZE <s> and LINE-COUNT <m> with the REPORT statement to create global definitions for column and line length for all list levels. The different list levels are created during interactive reporting. Within a list level, you can use NEW-PAGE LINE-COUNT <s> to change the number of lines on a page - this value overrides the definition in the REPORT statement. The width of a list can only be changed by creating a new list level. If you want to use the default values, then set <s> and/or <m> to zero. You cannot use variables for <s> or <m>. An optional addition in the REPORT statement, n, reserves a line for the footer. To create a footer, you have to program the END-OF-PAGE event.
You can maintain a list header (page header) and up to four column headers for a list. If you have not maintained a list title, the system uses the program name as a default (system field SY-TITLE ). The addition NO STANDARD PAGE HEADING in the REPORT statement suppresses the output of list/column headers. Alternatively the TOP-OF-PAGE event can be used to generate page headers. TOP-OF-PAGE is especially useful when you want to output variables in the headers. TOP-OF-PAGE is triggered whenever a new page is created ( WRITE , ULINE , and so on). If you do not suppress the standard list headers, they appear above the lines generated by TOP-OF-PAGE . Lines generated by TOP-OF-PAGE remain in the window during vertical scrolling.
Note the use of the START-OF-SELECTION event to separate the TOP-OF-PAGE event. START-OF-SELECTION is the default event if your program does not have an event entry.
Formatting Output - Solid Lines SY-ULINE & SY-VLINE allow you to frame a list, and separate headings by horizontal lines and columns by vertical lines. Explain how program works in reference to producing the output below:
