This is the query and the result:
As you see, I am filtering out the users that are bo:ania
, so why do they still appear?
However, if I remove the widecard and select just the users ?user
, bo:ania
doesn't appear
I didn't provide a minimum data example because this is a question about how filter and wildcard work, not about a problem in extracting some data from a data set. However, if you need a minimum data, I'm more than happy to provide it.
?specificUser
is bound to bo:ania
by your VALUES
statement. ?user
is an entirely different binding defined by the other triple patterns. Your FILTER
says to filter out results where ?user = bo:ania
, and it appears to be doing that correctly, seeing that ?user
is not bound to bo:ania
in any of the results.
BTW, there isn't a need to use VALUES
in this case unless you want to inspect multiple values. If it's just the one value, then the following would work, and not have you wondering why the binding to bo:ania
is included in the result set:
SELECT *
WHERE {
?user a rs:user .
?user rs:hasRated ?rating .
?rating rs:hasRatingDate ?ratngDate .
FILTER (?ratingDates >= (now() -"P10000F"^^xsd:duration) )
FILTER (?user != bo:ania)
}
