A quick definition of Prior art:

Term: Prior art

Definition: Prior art refers to all the information that is publicly available before someone claims to invent something. This information includes any existing patents, publications, or other materials that describe the invention. When someone applies for a patent, the invention must be novel and non-obvious. If the prior art contains a description of the supposed invention, it usually cannot be considered novel. Similarly, if the prior art contains enough information that the invention would have been obvious to someone with ordinary skills in the relevant field, a patent cannot be granted.

Example: If someone claims to have invented a new type of phone, but there are already patents or publications that describe similar phones, then the invention may not be considered novel. Similarly, if the invention is simply a combination of existing technologies that would have been obvious to someone with ordinary skills in the field, then a patent cannot be granted.

A more thorough explanation:

Prior art

Prior art refers to all publicly available information before someone claims to invent something. This information can include patents, scientific articles, and other publications. When someone applies for a patent, the invention must be novel and non-obvious. If the prior art contains a description of the supposed invention, it usually cannot be considered novel. If the prior art contains enough information that the invention would have been obvious to someone of ordinary skill in the relevant field, a patent cannot be granted.

For example, if someone tries to patent a new type of phone case, but there are already several patents for similar phone cases, the invention may not be considered novel. Similarly, if the phone case is made using a common material and method, it may not be considered non-obvious.

@llama: probably this ill try and figure it out hmm
Denny
14:32

14:33
Im sure u can figure it out, just maybe make a copy if possible of both sources, that way if u mess up u do not corrupt ur original data
Denny
14:33
yeah
Denny
14:34

Denny
14:34

14:34
two google sheets are your source docs? what is your intended output
Denny
14:34
two sheets in one google doc
Denny
14:35
trying to move stuff based on date & information put in
Denny
14:35
a spreadsheet to be updated daily that tracks inventory i guess
14:36
oh well at least date/time is chronological, so you can set parameters (opposed to values or non quantatiative)
Denny
14:37
i find that date and time get tricky
14:38
google sheets > Data > Data extractor OR Data connector maybe
Denny
14:38
thats to extract from a different sheet tho
Denny
14:38
i just want a new page
14:39
a new page within the same sheet (like on the bottom)
Denny
14:39
yeah
Denny
14:41
basically stuff gets inputted from an external program and the sheet has to decide what to do with it. but every day inventory is refreshed. so i want to paste in the current inventory every day and then use the numbers provided from the external site to track that data and move it if the days out hits 0
Denny
14:41
but i want to maintain accuracy on one sheet while pasting into another
14:44
hmm sounds fun. Maybe look at google apps script or pivot tables? It is hard to say without knowing more info. unfortunately, I am not crazy good with sheets, but I use improve/trial and error to make up for it.
