Hello. I am beginner and i really appreciate your help. I have an array (text) question as shown on the attachment. I set the advanced settings to allow only numerical imput. Is it possible to control the numeber entered? Number in the first column should be between 5 and 5,4. in the second column should be between 5,5 and 6,4. in the third between 6,5 nd 7,4 and in the fourth between 7,5 and 8.
Thank you so much and sorry for my english

Hi, dbevi,
as far as I understand, the respondents have to enter just one number in each row.
Either it is "sufficiente" or "eccellente" or so.
Well, I cannot imagine that they have to fill all cells in a row.

So in my opinion it is sufficient to use just a multi numerical input, where the respondents give their ratings to the three items.
In the help text you explain that a number between 5 and 5,4 means "sufficiente", between 5,5 and 6,4 means "buono", ...

More: You can use a slider; see attachment.

And what do you need the sums for? If, you can calculate them by EM.

Best regards

In an equation.

name it e.g. "sumslider".
In the question text enter {sum(that.code of sliderquestion)}.
Afterwards you have the sum in this variable "sumslider".

About "self, that" read manual.limesurvey.org/Expression_Manager....27that.27_variables

Thank you so much. I have one last question. In an equation type question is it possible to sum the results of other questions?
And is it possible to make addition? Es. code of sliderquestion + code of sliderquestion1+code of sliderquestion2 + 12?

Hi, bdevi,
why not?
You have your sum of sliderquestion1 (sumSLI1) and the sum of sliderquestion2 (sumSLI2).

Just create a new equation where you add them.
