How to find the 3 highest values and the 3 lowest values?

Hello,

I have an attribute called price. I want to find the 5 highest values and 5 lowest (e.g if my column contains prices 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11) this should give me 1,2,3,9,10,11. I hope I am being clear enough. Now I know how do do this seperately by sorting and filtering, I cant seem to find a way to generate this in one go.

Please help. Please go easy on me as I am a newbie

Hi @Khiba,

Another alternative - although a bit cumbersome is to combine the operators "Aggregate", "Sort", "Filter Example Range", and "Append"... The XML for this process is below.

Hope this helps,
Ingo

The Finance and Economics extension (free in the marketplace) has an operator to calculate rank. You can use this and then simply select the top or bottom n values however you like.

yes thank you @IngoRM @Telcontar120 for that. Please note that I strongly discourage using the Finance and Economics extension (aka the Quantx extension) as it has many known bugs. My hunch is that powerusers like @Telcontar120 know where they are and deal with them.
