Price band

A price band is a policy instrument that serves to insulate domestic producers and processors when the world price for a commodity falls below a calculated reference price (e.g., a price target comparable to a commodity support level). Protection is provided by imposing a variable import levy on the imported commodity that raises the importer’s cost to the reference price. Chile, some Andean Group countries, and some Central American countries use price bands to protect specific commodity and processed food sectors.

In the field of price management a Price Band is a Histogram in which prices of goods and services are grouped into bands. The value of each band is generally either the frequency of occurrences in the sample set within that price band, or the percentage of total volume/revenue contributed by that price band. The Price Band provides a Frequency distribution measuring the ranges at which goods or services were sold.

gollark: Thank you for your input.
gollark: See, there are lots of ways I could do it: - the way dokuwiki handles search, where there's a box in the navbar and when you hit enter it navigates to a new page with the results (somewhat slower to interact with, but simple and allows a lot of information with each result)- clientside JS implementing a search overlay/modal so that the results update immediately as you type, except this is kind of not that useful as SQLite full text search is not very fuzzy- a combination of these approaches, where you have a live JS-based fuzzy search thing for page *titles* and the dokuwiki-style thing for most searches
gollark: No.
gollark: Right now it's just this and there is no search box anywhere.
gollark: As in, how to make the UI work nicely.
