    if your data set does not have any confidential information it would be better if you shared your data set so we can come up with a solution that is based on real data set.

     

    below is a poster who shared a misrepresentation of their data set that received a solution based on a mis-representation and is complaining that the suggested solution isn't working:

    as you can see in that post, the sample data set largely differs from the sample data set that was shared.
