Scoring within a Group

[Rachael Sabelli]

I understand from the link (https://help.commcarehq.org/display/commcarepublic/Creating+a+Score+Tally) that it's possible to calculate a score for questions within a form, but I want to do them for only a group of questions within the form. Is this possible?

Hello,

You could do that by only including the question ids of the questions within the group in the total_score hidden value - does that work?

Hi Jeremy,

Thanks for the response. 

I've tried to insert the string of questions, but am still not getting the desired response. 

For example, I have 10 questions that I want to take to total score of. I tried the following calculation for 'Calculate Condition', but it didn't work. 

 (/data/ipv_start/ipv1 and /data/ipv_start/ipv2 and /data/ipv_start/ipv3 and /data/ipv_start/ipv5 and /data/ipv_start/ipv4 and /data/ipv_start/ipv6 and /data/ipv_start/ipv7 and /data/ipv_start/ipv8 and /data/ipv_start/ipv9 and /data/ipv_start/ipv10 and /data/ipv_start/ipv11 and /data/ipv_start/ipv12 and /data/ipv_start/ipv13)/total_score

Is that the correct formatting for the calculation?

Thanks,

Rachael

Hi Rachel,

You will want to use "+" instead of "and" if you want to add the values together.

Thanks Jeremy! :)

I'm still a bit new to all of this and haven't quite figured out these small things yet. Really appreciate the quick response!
