: I am using function queries to rank the results, : if some/ allthe fields (used in the function ) are missing from the document : what will be the ranking behavior for such documents?
Off the top of my head, I believe it's zero, but an easy way to check is to run a simple linear function query with no offset and a slope of 1 (esentially an identity fucntion) against a doc with no value for that field and see what you get. -Hoss
