 [ConvertToElement](struct_convert_to_element.xhtml)  ( [DataObjectContainer](class_data_object_container.xhtml)  *the\_data*) 

constructor which sets suitable defaults for all members

Parameters the\_datathe subset of field data to be token as input. All quantity idents are extracted. Then for each quantity a new result object will be created with design ident "mean".
