I didn't mean that there are already templates but you can create them (everything you have included in your post are basic arithmetic operations.... if you have the data, the key problem as always).

Sorry if I've mislead you, but I tend to write all my messages assuming a common background
Hi. No probably we dont have too much common background, I dont have Karma of 4850002 and 5000 posts

Still Im still interested, if it is possible one way or another to get rating, with decimal (at least one) number for sorting etc., and eventually other 'raw data' fields that can be added to custom made columns. I did define a additional column, and used a template in it, but couldnt define exactly.

What little background I have is in programming, so I know what a function or a variable is. I couldnt find how to define the variables.

But this is the proper question - if Calibre only gets rounded integer for rating ? ie. due to amazon policy ? or if it does get more things and more data and if yes, how to add them in custom column. Maybe with even a little 'column editor' where you combine functions and variable. That would be a absolutely great feature, in my opinion.

Thanks for your replies.
