I want to be able to store some 100x100 matrices onto a table within my database (covariance matrices). A first good step for me would be to flatten the matrix and store the matrix structure (among other things) into a parent table.
However, creating such a table would require to make a table with about 10,000 or so columns. Writing so many field names would make my SQL code extraordinarily large, and I wouldn't know where to start if I want to query for that matrix.
Is there a neat way to specify such a table in SQL? Is there a neat way for me to set or get a particular (set of) matrix (matrices) from my database using such a table? Is there a better way?
I am using Sqlite for my databases.
All tables with big size of same typed columns can be rotated.
For example if you have a table A like this:
row col1 col2 col3 ...
1 1 2 3
2 11 12 13
You can simply rotate to a table with 3 colums
row col value
1 1 1
1 2 2
1 3 3
2 1 11
2 2 12
2 3 13
so instead of writing big sql like
select col1, col2, col3 ...... from A where row = 2
you write sql like
select value from A where row = 2 order by col
the result set was originally horizontal and now become vertical -- it is rotated and easy to handle.

I have the following dataset

I want to Pivot:
follow up result and resulted by as indexes
follow up number as a column
# and % as values
pivot = df.head(3).pivot(columns=['follow_up_number'], values=["#", '%'], index=['follow_up_result', 'resulted_by'])
However, I want the follow up number to be above the values, here is how I achieved that:
pivot = df.head(3).pivot(columns=['follow_up_result', 'resulted_by'], values=["#", '%'], index=['follow_up_number'])
pivot = pivot.stack(level=0).T
Notice how I switch columns and indexes.
I want the column names to be at the same level as the values.
Is there a way to do that?
Is there a better way to achieve what I need without switching between columns and indexes?

I am new to Hive and Hadoop framework. I am trying to write a hive query to split the column delimited by a pipe '|' character. Then I want to group up the 2 adjacent values and separate them into separate rows.
Example, I have a table
id mapper
1 a|0.1|b|0.2
2 c|0.2|d|0.3|e|0.6
3 f|0.6
I am able to split the column by using split(mapper, "\\|") which gives me the array
id mapper
1 [a,0.1,b,0.2]
2 [c,0.2,d,0.3,e,0.6]
3 [f,0.6]
Now I tried to to use the lateral view to split the mapper array into separate rows, but it will separate all the values, where as I want to separate by group.
Expected:
id mapper
1 [a,0.1]
1 [b,0.2]
2 [c,0.2]
2 [d,0.3]
2 [e,0.6]
3 [f,0.6]
Actual
id mapper
1 a
1 0.1
1 b
1 0.2
etc .......
How can I achieve this?
I would suggest you to split your pairs split(mapper, '(?<=\\d)\\|(?=\\w)'), e.g.
split('c|0.2|d|0.3|e|0.6', '(?<=\\d)\\|(?=\\w)')
results in
["c|0.2","d|0.3","e|0.6"]
then explode the resulting array and split by |.
Update:
If you have digits as well and your float numbers have only one digit after decimal marker then the regex should be extended to split(mapper, '(?<=\\.\\d)\\|(?=\\w|\\d)').
Update 2:
OK, the best way is to split on the second | as follows
split(mapper, '(?<!\\G[^\\|]+)\\|')
e.g.
split('6193439|0.0444035224643987|6186654|0.0444035224643987', '(?<!\\G[^\\|]+)\\|')
results in
["6193439|0.0444035224643987","6186654|0.0444035224643987"]
I have two dataset data1 and data2
data data1;
input sn id $;
datalines;
1 a
2 a
3 a
;
run;
data data2;
input id $ sales x $;
datalines;
a 10 x
a 20 y
a 30 z
a 40 q
;
run;
I am merging them from below code:
data join;
merge data1(in=a) data2(in=b);
by id;
if a and b;
run;
Result: (I was expecting an Inner Join result which is not the case)
1 a 10 x
2 a 20 y
2 a 30 z
2 a 40 w
Result from proc sql inner join.
proc sql;
select data1.id,sn,sales,x from data2 inner join data1 on data1.hh_id;
quit;
Result: (As expected from an inner join)
a 1 10 x
a 1 20 y
a 1 30 z
a 1 40 w
a 2 10 x
a 2 20 y
a 2 30 z
a 2 40 w
b 3 10 x
b 3 20 y
b 3 30 z
b 3 40 w
I want to know the concept and STEP BY STEP working of merge statement in SAS with In= and proving the above result.
PS: I have read this, and it says
An obvious use for these variables is to control what kind of 'merge'
will occur, using if statements. For example, if
ThisRecordIsFromYourData and ThisRecordIsFromOtherData; will make SAS
only include rows that match on the by variables from both input data
sets (like an inner join).
which I guess, (like an Inner Join) is not always the case.
Basically, this is a result of the difference in how the SAS data step and SQL process their respective join/merges.
SQL creates a separate record for each possible combination of keys. This is a Cartesian Product (at the key level).
SAS data step, however, process merges very differently. MERGE is really nothing more than a special case of SET. It still processes rows iteratively, one at a time - it never goes back, and never has more than one row from any dataset in the PDV at once. Thus, it cannot create a Cartesian product in its normal process - that would require random access, which the SAS datastep doesn't do normally.
What it does:
For each unique BY value
Take the next record from the left side dataset, if one exists with that BY value
Take the next record from the right side dataset, if one exists with that BY value
Output a row
Continue until both datasets are exhausted for that BY value
With BY values that yield unique records per value on either side (or both), it is effectively identical to SQL. However, with BY values that yield duplicates on BOTH sides, you get what you have there: a side-by-side merge, and if one runs out before the other, the values from the last row of the shorter dataset (for that by value) are more-or-less copied down. (They're actually RETAINED, so if you overwrite them with changes, they will not reset on new records from the longer dataset).
So, if left has 3 records and right has 4 records for key value a, like in your example, then you get data from the following records (assuming you don't alter the data after):
left right
1 1
2 2
3 3
3 4
I am trying to best figure out a way to store this particular case of data in a static database table
on the front end the user will be presented with a simple table (say 5x5 by default) but the user can expand or delete rows/ columns at will.
The idea is that the first column will be labels that are the same as the headers, similar to a graph and that any change to either is reflected to the other, so the graph (not really a graph, but I feel it is a valid comparison) remains a square
col1 col2 col3 col4 col5
row1 1 5 6 8 9
row2 2 3 4 5 3
row3 0 0 0 0 0 all values can be different
row4 0 0 0 0 0 the row and column names will be the same always
row5 0 0 0 0 0
IE (start with 5x5, if user removes row5 or col5 it becomes 4x4)
so because of this dynamic amount of columns I am unsure how to represent it in a table in the database.
each cell in the "map" will just contain an int and I am having a hard time finding an elegant way to map this in my database for usage with linq to sql
any ideas?
EDIT: I could simply wrap everything from the front end in a JSON object and have a bunch of code for that but i'm not sure if that would be easiest or not, mainly looking for some good input for now
Here's a start, using a Graph table with separate tables for columns, rows and cells. It' doesn't enforce the "squareness" of the graph, but you could enforce that in your application logic.
Graph
- GraphID
GraphColumn
- GraphID
- ColumnID
- ColumnName
GraphRow
- GraphID
- RowID
- RowName
GraphCell
- ColumnID
- RowID
- CellValue
Total newbie here, regarding sqlite, so don't flame too hard :)
I have a table:
index name length L breadth B height H
1 M-1234 10 5 2
2 M-2345 20 10 3
3 ....
How do I put some tabular data (let' say ten x,y values) corresponding to index 1, then another table to index 2, and then another, etc. In short, so that I have a table of x and y values that is "connected" to first row, then another that is connected to second row.
I'm reading some tutorials on sqlite3 (which I'm using), but am having trouble finding this. If anyone knows a good newbie tutorial or a book dealing with sqlite3 (CLI) I'm all ears for that too :)
You are just looking for information on joins and the concept of foreign key, that although SQLite3 doesn't enforce, is what you need. You can go without it, anyway.
In your situation you can either add two "columns" to your table, being one x and another y, or create a new table with 3 "columns": foreign_index, x and y. Which one to use depends on what you are trying to accomplish, performance and maintainability.
If you go the linked table route, you'd end up with two tables, like this:
MyTable
index name length L breadth B height H
1 M-1234 10 5 2
2 M-2345 20 10 3
3 ....
XandY
foreign_index x y
1 12 9
2 8 7
3 ...
When you want the x and y values of your element, you just use something like SELECT x, y FROM XandY WHERE foreign_index = $idx;
To get all the related attributes, you just do a JOIN:
SELECT index, name, length, breadth, height, x, y FROM MyTable INNER JOIN XandY ON MyTable.index = XandY.foreign_index;
