jamovi

1) Compute Variable: The formula does not work for me on the latest Windows 10 version and Jamovi 1.1.4 version. It only shows "0" as result. If I use it does not work either. However works fine. Seems to be a problem with decimals? Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

2) I used to open .omv files directly by double clicking on them. Now that will just open an empty Jamovi file. But opening datasets from the menu works fine.

Thanks for reading!

hi,

so the computer science answer is that when you divide two integers, the result itself is an integer. so 1/2 = 0.5, which is then truncated to 0.

if you go 1.0/2 you'll get the expected 0.5

it's an issue which crops up in a lot of places, i.e.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/213 ... -7-and-3-3

so now i'm wondering if there's any issue with treating *all* divisions as decimals. i'm not entirely sure. i'll have to think about it.

wrt double clicking .omv files, yup, i'm on it.

cheers

hi,

i've decided to treat all divisions from now on as floating point, so 1/2 will now equal 0.5

i've also added an integer divide for the old behaviour 1//2, will now equal 0

this will be in the 1.1.6 version or newer.

(wrt file associations not working, the 1.1.5 will fix this)

thanks for reporting.

wow, thanks! opening files works again, too
