Notes on variables:
- rep: total replies
- repchange: change of total replies between two months
- prep2: percent of change in rep (replies) between two continuous months.
- views: total views
- viewchange: change of total views between two months
- pview2: percent of change in total views (views) between two continuous months.
- pages: total pages
- pagechange: change of total pages between two months
- ppages2: percent of change in total pages (pages) between two continuous months.
- btc: BTC price
- pbtc: percent of change in BTC price (btc) between two continuous months.
Since this update, I use new variables, pview2, prep2, ppages2, because variables for percentage of changes between two months in OP look stupid, so I decided to change.
Now, let I explain the formula for variable prep2:
To make it simple, I have a simple dataset like:
1 10 na na
2 50 40 na
3 80 30 x
x = (80-50)/(50-10)*100
It means I calculate percentage of changes in two period: period 1 (from month 1 to month 2), period 2 (from month 2 to month 3)
Results:
Period of observations (24 months, Oct. 2017 - 31th Oct. 2019)
In medians, figures for monthly new replies, views, and pages are 6099 (repchange), 52920 (viewchange) and 268 (pagechange), respectively
