Stats and graphs

Well, I mananged to waste half a day today, in a way it was fruitless, but on the other hand it has given me ideas about some interesting applications, so it wasn't all bad I guess.

So as everyone may know the 35mm forum has been dominated by the Nikon D90 thread, what a monster!

someone asked about the post rate was, which got me thinking.

Long story short, spent most of the day doing something that should have been stupidly simple, that became stupidly complex:

I ended up programming a HTML ripper/parser, to extact the time & date stamp data from DVXuser;

then wrangled with it in excel, GNUplot and Clementines to finally produce some graphs and stats:

I saw the title of the thread and said "Anhar must have started that."

Turns out I was right. It is much too late for me to sift through that glorious information right now. Plus it's Friday. :grin:
