ACTUAL FINAL PAPER QUESTIONS AND SOLUTIONS
MARKED A+
✔✔In a Pivot table, what is the vertical axis? - ✔✔Pivot On (optional)
✔✔In a Pivot table, what is the horizontal axis? - ✔✔Group By
✔✔What operation has to be completed before communication analysis can be run? -
✔✔Name normalisation
✔✔Communication analysis runs off what fields? - ✔✔Entity From and Entity Recipient
✔✔How many communicators are displayed at one time in communication analysis? -
✔✔500. This ensures the visualisation doesn't become too expansive.
✔✔For best results, should communication analysis include unique documents or
inclusive email documents only? - ✔✔It's best practice to keep all unique documents in
the document view rather than inclusive emails only.
It's also best practice to keep unique documents (i.e. remove duplicates) is so as not to
double count a single communication.
✔✔In communication analysis, what does the thickness of the link between nodes
represent? - ✔✔The volume of communication between the individuals
✔✔Are entities and documents included in communication analysis if the user does not
have permissions to view those entities and documents? - ✔✔No
✔✔In communication analysis, what determines the size of the node? - ✔✔The number
of times the entity appears in the Entity From and Entity Recipient document fields.
✔✔In communication analysis, are parties included in the analysis if they're involved in
the email further down the chain? - ✔✔No. Parties further down the chain (Entity
Participant) are not displayed in the analysis.
✔✔In communication analysis, what information do you see when you hover over a
node? - ✔✔1. Name of the entity
2. Sent
3. Received
4. Total (i.e. sent + received. This determines the node size).
,✔✔In order for a document to be recognised as an email and threaded, what fields must
it have? - ✔✔It must have Email From and at least one of the following:
Sent Date
Email To
Email Subject
Email CC
Email BCC
If a doc is recognised as an email but does not have a Date Sent field, it ill be
categorised as a draft.
✔✔Assume that you have selected a node in communication analysis and are
searching for the documents within that node. If you then click on another node, does
that remove or update the previously added search card? - ✔✔No. Instead, another
search card is added for the new node, separated by an AND statement.
✔✔By default, is a saved search private or public? - ✔✔Private by default.
It can be changed to public by pressing on 'Owner' when you right-click on a saved
search and press edit.
It can be changed to another user by selecting that user's name from the drop-down
menu. This makes the search visible t only that user and Relativity administrators.
✔✔In the context of searching, is auto-recognition enabled by default? - ✔✔No. Auto-
recognition of date formats, email addresses and credit card numbers must be enabled
by a system admin.
✔✔In the context of auto-recognition of dates: assume you have an ambiguous date,
like 01/05/10. how does dtSearch recognise this date? - ✔✔It defaults to to MM/DD/YY.
✔✔With regards to auto-recognition of dates, should you use the full month name (.e.g
January) or the abbreviated month name (e.g. Jan)? - ✔✔You should use the full month
name.
✔✔In the context of email address recognition, what would a search of the following
return: "mail(sa*@example.com)"? - ✔✔It returns variations of the email address:
; .
✔✔How would you search for the date January 10 2006 using auto-recognition? -
✔✔date(january 10 2006)
✔✔How would you search for the range of dates January 10 2006 - January 20 2006
using auto-recognition? - ✔✔date(january 10 2006 to january 20 2006)
, ✔✔How would you search for the range of dates January 10 2006 - January 20 2006
within 10 words of 'apple' using auto-recognition? - ✔✔date(january 10 2006 to january
20 2006) w/10 apple
✔✔Does auto-recognition recognise numeric strings (e.g. MM/DD/YY) as dates? -
✔✔Yes. It recognises the following strings as dates:
MM/DD/YY or MM-DD-YY
MM/DD/YYYY or MM-DD-YYYY
DD/MM/YY or DD-MM-YY
DD/MM/YYYY or DD-MM-YYYY
In the case of ambiguous dates, such as 01/05/10, dtSearch defaults to MM/DD/YY.
✔✔How would you search for a credit card number using auto-recognition? - ✔✔Enter a
credit card number between the parentheses in creditcard() e.g.: creditcard(1234*)
✔✔What would be returned by the following searches?:
apple W/10 xfirstword
apple W/10 xlastword - ✔✔Documents which contain 'apple' within the first 10 words or
last 10 words of a file.
✔✔What are the 5 dtSearch connector words? - ✔✔and
or
not
to
contains
✔✔How do you search for a phrase that contains a connector words, e.g. "clear and
convincing evidence"? - ✔✔Either:
a. Put the phrase in quotation marks
b. Put a tilde after the connector word, e.g.: not~ relevant
Note that the addition of the tilde after the connector word DOES apply the stemming
rules to it, but this is irrelevant because stemming rules do not apply to short words (e.g.
and, or, not, to, contains).
✔✔How do you combine required search terms with search terms that are optional? -
✔✔By using the AndAny operator. Terms before this operator are reuired, and terms
after it are optional. For example: (apple and pear) AndAny (grape or banana) would
