Labels from year 15 returned #27

Open agataf opened 6 years ago

agataf commented 6 years ago

The command ff.search('age', 'label') returns year 15 labels such as cp6age, which are not included in the challenge files. It is easy to filter those labels, but can be very misleading for people who are just starting to work with the dataset. It would be helpful to have a flag that subselects only the labels present in the challenge files.

hi @agataf! this is a great suggestion! we will be adding a column to the metadata marking variables that were included in the challenge file. i will let you know when this change has been made! UPDATE: i will have to wait to confirm until tomorrow morning whether this can move forward but i will let you know

hi @agataf and @atkindel - I can confirm that a column will be added to the next release of our metadata with the challenge variables flagged. Thanks for the suggestions!
