Room occupancy statistics

[sasbland]

Hello, is there a way to get statistics on room use? For example, how many hrs they're occupied. I couldn't find it anywhere. Many thanks.

In the fet-results folder is a file called *_statistics.html.
But if i remeber correct, then only for teachers and students, since rooms don't complain if they work to much or to less.

There is no statistics before generating, because in normal case an activity has only a single room and so generating will stuck if the room is used too often and you will notice it very quick. Most guys won't check a statistic for that.
And if the room has 2 or more possible rooms, then we don't know which room is used before, so we can't count the rooms.
And a room might have a constraint with less then 100%. How to count that?

Of course after generating i could do such a statistics, but even if i see room A is used 20 times and room B is used 15 times, i will never place an activity into the other room, because it is less often used then the other room. I choose the room different. But the same problem here again. It might be just luck that there are 20 activities in room A and only 15 in room B, if you use roomS contsraints. So even if the statistics counted now correct, it might be different if you generate the same data set again. So you might get a "wrong" answer if you see a room statistics.

hmm... I might code it.
But maybe tell me why you need to know it and what you need to know.
So hours per week? But why?
Gaps per week? But why?
Gaps per day? But Why?
Max hours per day? But why?
...

Do you want a room statistics before or after generating?
If you want it before generating: Who should i count rooms, if they have got 2 or more possible rooms? And how should i count constraints with less then 100% weight?

Also i am not sure how to count it if it is a virual room (so in fact 2 or more rooms at the same time). Just add them or count them seperated?
