Building a multiple score quiz


Hello,

I am building a quiz with multiple scores but I am having trouble calculating my results.  I need to compare the total scores of each variable to see which is the highest.  I would like my ending to be the variable with the highest score.  The problem is that the only option is to  compare the score of my variables against another number.  Is there a way to compare variables against each other rather than against a single number?  

Thanks for the help!

@bridgesouth - your logic rule set needs to look at the something like this:

 

  • if v1 is greater than v2 and v1 is greater than v3 and v1 is greater than v4 then go to v1_page
  • if v2 is gt v1 and v2 gt v3 and v2 gt v4 then go to v2_page 
  • if v3 gt v1 and v3 gt v2 and v3 gt v4 go to v3_page
  • if v4 gt v1 and v4 gt v2 and v4 gt v3 go to v4_page

that set will get you to the ending if there is a unique high score

 

  • if v1 = v2 and v1 gt v3 and v1 gt v4 then go to v1_v2_tied_page (this would be a tiebreaker that you need to create to choose between v1 and v2 as they are tied with highscore.. 

you need to do this eval across all the possible ties and route to separate tie breaker pages 

or you can just have a simple tiebreaker question that deals with any/all categories so that you have someone selecting something to start..

Hello, Thank you for the suggestion! However, unfortunately, that post is not quite applicable. I am looking for the result to be the variable with the most points if that is a possibility.

Hello,

 

I appreciate the response! Unfortunately, my question wasn’t actually about the logic, I think I understand how to set it up. The problem is that I don’t have the option to compare variables against each other.  It only allows me to compare a variable’s value against a set number, which isn’t helpful to me.  For example, I need to be able to say if v1 is greater than v2 etc etc then go to var1, but on my type form it makes me enter a value instead of another variable.  Here is a screenshot to show. 

 

 

Where it has a 0 it only allows me to input a number, not another variable.  Do you know if the paid version of type form allows a comparison of two variables or if that is available somewhere else on the free version?  

 

I appreciate the help!
