Hi,

Im looking a way to eval values between 2 subsequence row. Please take a look on below.


my statictis table:

Product quality
phone_a40
phone_b50
phone_c40
phone_d70


Expected output:

Product qualityscore_current_vs_previous
phone_a40 
phone_b5010
phone_c40-10
phone_d7030


As you can see, the score_current_vs_previous= quality(current row) - quality(previous row)

Appreciate your help, thanks.

See this example search using your data set. What you need is from streamstats command

| makeresults
| eval _raw="Product	quality
phone_a	40
phone_b	50
phone_c	40
phone_d	70"
| multikv forceheader=1 
| table Product quality
| streamstats window=1 current=f first(quality) as prev_quality
| eval score_current_vs_previous=quality-prev_quality
| table Product quality score_current_vs_previous
