Conditional Sorting according to one value and then alphabetically - reporting-services

I have this group in a table. Where I need to display one value on the top and rest according to its alphabetical order.
Table
Column1 Value#1 Value#2
Alpha 12 26
Beta 65 745
Gamma 987 87
Pie 7 2
Non-Beta 132 426
Zeta 112 266
I want to sort it like this(Can anyone also tell me the real use of this other than Viewing Purpose)
Table
Column1 Value#1 Value#2
Non-Beta 132 426
Alpha 12 26
Beta 65 745
Gamma 987 87
Pie 7 2
Zeta 112 266
So the Non-Beta has to be displayed on the top and rest according to alphabetical order.
Edit
Thank you very much for the below reply Chris, Really appreciate and yes it works.
I have one more question from the over table format itself...How can I display it in the below format...
Table
Column1 Value#1 Value#2
Non-Beta 132 426
Alpha 12 26
Pie 7 2
Zeta 112 266
Total 263 720
Beta 65 745
Gamma 987 87
Total 1057 832
Thank you

Select the table, right-click the table handle, select Tablix Properties and select the Sorting tab. Press the Add button then click the fx button to open the expression editor. Enter the following expression:
=IIF(Fields!Column1.Value = "Non-Beta", "A" + Fields!Column1.Value, "B" + Fields!Column1.Value)
All we are doing is prefixing the special value field with something so it comes before the other fields.

5 point average in SSRS

I try to put a 5 point avg in my chart. I add a trendline, but it looks like this:
And then I created a new series to calculate there the avg. and this looks like this:
but I would like to show this in a 5 point average. How can I do this?
This answer is based on my experience with Excel, not reporting services, but it is probably the same problem.
Your chart is probably a scatter plot rather than a line chart (note: this is Excel terminology). A scatter plot does not have an intrinsic ordering in the data. A line chart does.
The solution (for a scatter plot) is simply to sort the data by the x-values. The same will probably work for you. If you are pulling the data from a database, then order by can accomplish this. Otherwise, you can sort the data in the application.
Using this post as a starting point you can see that it is possible to calculate a moving average for a chart using the SQL query that pulls the data from the database.
For example, using this table in my database called mySalesTable
myDate sales myDate sales myDate sales
---------- ------ ---------- ------ ---------- ------
01/01/2015 456 16/01/2015 546 31/01/2015 658
02/01/2015 487 17/01/2015 12 01/02/2015 121
03/01/2015 245 18/01/2015 62 02/02/2015 654
04/01/2015 812 19/01/2015 516 03/02/2015 261
05/01/2015 333 20/01/2015 1 04/02/2015 892
06/01/2015 449 21/01/2015 65 05/02/2015 982
07/01/2015 827 22/01/2015 15 06/02/2015 218
08/01/2015 569 23/01/2015 656 07/02/2015 212
09/01/2015 538 24/01/2015 25 08/02/2015 312
10/01/2015 455 25/01/2015 549 09/02/2015 21
11/01/2015 458 26/01/2015 261
12/01/2015 542 27/01/2015 21
13/01/2015 549 28/01/2015 21
14/01/2015 432 29/01/2015 61
15/01/2015 685 30/01/2015 321
You can pull out this data, and create a Moving average based on the last 5 dates by using the following query for your dataset
SELECT mst.myDate, mst.sales, avg(mst_past.sales) AS moving_average
FROM mySalesTable mst
JOIN mySalesTable as mst_past
ON mst_past.myDate
BETWEEN DATEADD(D, -4, mst.myDate) AND mst.myDate
GROUP BY mst.myDate, mst.sales
ORDER BY mst.myDate ASC
This is effectively joining a sub-table for each row consisting of the previous 4 dates and the current date, and finds the average for these dates, outputting that as the column moving_average
You can then chart both these fields as normal, to give the following output (with the data table so you and see the actual calculated moving average)
Hopefully this will help you. Please let me know if you require further assistance

Mysql search for exact number in field

in my MySql DB, i have column containing that kind of value
63 61 57 52 50 47 46 44 43 34 33 27 23 22 21 10 5 3 2 1
Those numbers are separated by tab.
Impossible to get the good result for a simple query that would aid something like this
SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE mycolumn = 63
I'm not sure if "=" is the good method, i've also tried LIKE, IN and even FIND_IN_SET
I need some help :)

strange output after appending a column

I cbind a column "class" to a data frame and got a new tdm1, tdm1<- cbind(tdm1, class), it's all good
the content of class looks like this
1 715
2 715
3 707
4 705
5 704
6 701
7 701
...
Then after cbind, I want to get a look at the class column by using tdm1[,ncol(tdm1)], somehow i got 35 Levels: 156 174 205 250 295 324 335 340 343 345 348 349 361 370 375 381 382 428 439 451 455 701 704 705 706 ... 72 after the correct values for the entire column. it's like a summary of the column value. Idon't know where it came from. this additional information makes my later knn classification weird. how do i get rid of it?
Your object is a factor. Calling ?factor reveals:
factor returns an object of class "factor" which has a set of integer
codes the length of x with a "levels" attribute of mode character and
unique (!anyDuplicated(.))
The levels attribute being printed to your dismay reflects all the unique values contained within the object you are printing. To get rid of it, try:
as.numeric(as.characer(tdm1[,ncol(tdm1)]))

Grouping and Total on one Column Values

I have this group in a table. Where I need to display one value on the top and rest according to its alphabetical order.
Table
Column1 Value#1 Value#2
Alpha 12 26
Beta 65 745
Gamma 987 87
Pie 7 2
Non-Beta 132 426
Zeta 112 266
How can I display it in the below format...
Table
Column1 Value#1 Value#2
Non-Beta 132 426
Alpha 12 26
Pie 7 2
Zeta 112 266
Total 263 720
Beta 65 745
Gamma 987 87
Total 1057 832
I could display Non-Beta on the top by using the below expression in the sorting tab in the group Property.::
=IIF(Fields!Column1.Value = "Non-Beta", "A" + Fields!Column1.Value, "B" + Fields!Column1.Value)
But how do I Display it according to the above format. Values Come from one column (Column1)
EDIT
This is the output I got after the operation that Ian specified...
Thank you
You can set up a group based on an expression like this:
=IIf(Fields!Column1.Value = "Beta" or Fields!Column1.Value = "Gamma"
, "Group2"
, "Group1")
i.e. if Beta or Gamma, include in one group; everything else gets grouped together.
Include a Header and a Footer row with the group.
Apply the sorting expression to the Tablix as required.
The report will look something like this in the designer:
End results looks like your requirements:

Querying a table to get values based on no of digits of a parameter?

Considering the following table
I have a large table from which I can query to get the following table
type no of times type occurs
101 450
102 562
103 245
111 25
112 28
113 21
Now suppose I wanted to get a table which shows me the sum of no of times type occurs
for type starting with 1 then starting with 10,11,12,13.......19 then starting with 2, 20,21, 22, 23...29 and so on.
Something like this
1 1331 10 1257
11 74
12 ..
13 ..
.. ..
2 ... 20 ..
21 ..
Hope I am clear
Thanks
You really have two different queries:
SELECT [type]\100 AS TypePart, Count(t.type) AS CountOftype
FROM t
GROUP BY [type]\100;
And:
SELECT [type]\100 AS TypePart, [type] Mod 100 AS TypeEnd,
Count(t.type) AS CountOftype
FROM t
GROUP BY [type]\100, [type] Mod 100;
Where t is the name of the table.
Here on the first query i am getting something like this
utypPart CountOftype
1 29
2 42
3 46
4 50
5 26
6 45
7 33
9 1
it is giving me how many utyp are starting with 1 2 and so on
but whai i want is the sum of no of times those types occur for the utyp .
