Statistical expressions in report

[quasiquote1]

Hi, I'm trying to write long statistical expressions in the report yaml file and find that I will likely need to reference field_names in my expressions.

Example:

(lookups - hits) : misses
(misses * 1000.0 / total_insts) : misses_pki

Where the second statistical expression refers to the "misses" field name in the first key/value pair.

I saw this statement in the documentation:

Other counters/stats can be referenced relative to the current context in the report def just as simple named counters/stats are referenced in basic report entries.

https://sparcians.github.io/map/report_def_format.html#report_def_expressions

Do you have examples where field_names are used for subsequent statistical expressions?

Thanks!

Ugh, you hit on a bug/feature that isn't in Sparta yet: #311

I have a branch where I started adding this support, but haven't had time to finish it up. I'll move it up in priority.

Still working on this. 😄

Hey @quasiquote1 , I finally fixed/added support for this! Please give it a try in map_v2.0.12. https://github.com/sparcians/map/releases/tag/map_v2.0.12
