Hello!   I wanted to post a quick message to let you know that in early September, the Alteryx   SparkED   program will launch a new Job Board - where our users can post open data-related jobs from their organizations, and learners can post their resumes. The goal is to match various data-related skill sets (from entry level to advanced) with open postings so that we can create a network of Alteryx users ready to take on the challenges businesses face when it comes to data.   We are looking to have several jobs and resumes posted when the Board launches in a few weeks.    If you would like to post a job or your resume prior to our launch - please send me a message either in Community or via email:   amais@alteryx.com and we will get you set up ASAP.  After our launch, anyone can post jobs or resumes by visiting the SparkED group hub.   We're so excited to launch this feature and thank you in advance for your support! ...

Hey everyone,   Thanks for all those who attended a great meeting! We had two great speakers present this quarter. The great Mark Frisch aka @MarqueeCrew and Shawn Mock aka @ShawnM.    Mark gave us some great insights into using RegEx both within the formula tool and within the RegEx tool itself and the pros and cons of both. It was really enlightening as I have never thought about the data preview in the Formula tool to use as guidance.   Shawn provided us with some great insights into the new 2021.3 release. I especially look forward to comparing workflows, turning tools into a macro, and seeing the new and improved disabled containers.    Here is the recording:   We look forward to our Q4 meeting on November 11th! Stay tuned for more details on that.   ... View more

I have a data set that contains a list of 100 cities within the US (Target). I also have a list of all the zip codes in the US with they're associated populations (Universe). With that information, I've managed to calculate the total population within 100 miles of all the cities.   However, if I am limited to choosing only 10 cities in my target list, how do I know which 10 cities to pick to maximize population reach? Meaning, is there a way to calculate an optimized model that favors trade areas with the highest populations, trade areas with the least overlap, etc.? ... View more
