> Dear Metron community,
>  
> "[Statistics and Mathematical Functions|[https://metron.apache.org/current-book/metron-analytics/metron-statistics/index.html]]" page makes use of:
> {code:java}
> "foreach": "'global'"
> {code}
> But nowhere on the internet, I was able to find any description of what it is, how it's working and how to troubleshoot it.
> The page mentions "We will capture a global statistical state for the {{value}} field and we will look back for a 5 minute window when computing the median." from which I can guess that 'global' represents the entire message instead of any particular field.
> Can you please shed some more light on it?
> In the comments, I'll post an example of my restle with it.
