I have multiple users making a request to a web server each time they type a character into a search box. User 1 is typing 'please' and user 22 is typing 'cat'. Simplified log entries:
ip=10.10.0.1&q=p ip=10.10.1.22&q=c ip=10.10.0.1&q=pl ip=10.10.0.1&q=ple ip=10.10.1.22&q=ca ip=10.10.0.1&q=plea ip=10.10.1.22&q=cat ip=10.10.0.1&q=pleas ip=10.10.0.1&q=please
I would like to:
Count the number of requests that are all part of the same 'typing' action. So for Please it would be 6 and for Cat it be 3. It can be assumed that the user types a different word each time.
Count the number of distinct typing actions - so 1 for both users.
Any ideas?
Thanks Robert
