dc.js table on aggregated data - javascript

I've been trying to get my head around dc.js by duplicating the code from here, https://github.com/dc-js/dc.js/blob/develop/web/examples/table-on-aggregated-data.html, with my own data.
[
{"grade": 8, "category": "Math", "rating": 4},
{"grade": 8, "category": "English", "rating": 3},
{"grade": 8, "category": "Math", "rating": 1},
{"grade": 8, "category": "Math", "rating": 3},
{"grade": 8, "category": "Science", "rating": 1},
{"grade": 9, "category": "Science", "rating": 2},
{"grade": 9, "category": "Science", "rating": 5},
{"grade": 9, "category": "English", "rating": 5}
]
with the result being a table like this:
8 English 3
8 Math 2.67
8 Science 1
9 English 5
9 Science 3.5
I've put this together
var chart = dc.dataTable("#test");
d3.json("test.json", function(error, experiments) {
console.log(experiments);
var ndx = crossfilter(experiments),
exptDimension = ndx.dimension(function(d) {return +d.grade;}),
groupedDimension = exptDimension.group().reduce(
function (p, v) {
++p.number;
p.total += +v.rating;
p.category = v.category;
p.grade = v.grade;
p.avg = (p.total / p.number).toFixed(2);
console.log(p);
return p;
},
function (p, v) {
--p.number;
p.total -= +v.rating;
p.category = v.category;
p.grade = v.grade;
p.avg = (p.number == 0) ? 0 : Math.round(p.total / p.number).toFixed(2);
return p;
},
function () {
return {number: 0, total: 0, avg: 0, category:"", grade:"", }
}),
rank = function (p) { return "rank" };
chart
.width(768)
.height(480)
.dimension(groupedDimension)
.group(rank)
.columns([function (d) { console.log(d); return d.value.grade },
function (d) { return d.value.category },
function (d) { return d.value.avg }])
.sortBy(function (d) { return d.value.avg })
.order(d3.descending)
chart.render();
});
with this result:
9 English 4.00
8 Science 2.40
I feel like i'm missing something really simple. Does anybody have a suggestion on how to proceed?
Thanks

Yeah, it is simple - or mostly simple. There's an implicit requirement that you want to group by both grade and category, whereas you were grouping by grade only. Your reduce functions wouldn't make a lot of sense that way, because
p.category = v.category;
assumes there's only one category per grade. But if you ignore that, the answer was sort of "correct", in that the average rating for 9th graders is 4, and the average rating for 8th graders is 2.4.
To group by both grade and category, you can specify a dimension key with both values in it:
exptDimension = ndx.dimension(function(d) {return d.category+'/'+d.grade;}),
This constructs a string with both values in it. Some people just make an array key here, but I don't like that because it will do some implicit conversions to string, which is a bit slower.
So that was easy but it only orders by average rating:
9 English 5.00
9 Science 3.50
8 English 3.00
8 Math 2.67
8 Science 1.00
http://jsfiddle.net/gordonwoodhull/5sbdvtqv/2/
Another implicit requirement is that you want to order by grade in ascending order, and average rating in descending order. This is a bit tougher, because it means you need to specify a single key that encodes two opposite orders.
Here's one way to do it:
.sortBy(function (d) { return (20-d.value.grade)*1000 + d.value.avg; })
Yeah. Wow. That's going to be fun to maintain, but I don't know a better way to do it. It creates a sort key where grade is highly negative-weighted, and avg is weakly positive-weighted, which when combined with d3.descending, will do what you want.
End result:
8 English 3.00
8 Math 2.67
8 Science 1.00
9 English 5.00
9 Science 3.50

Taking JSON data, grouping by a property, and aggregating using multiple aggregation functions

Here is a sample of JSON data of fruit weights and prices:
let fruitData = [{"fruit":"apple","weight":12,"price":1.80},
{"fruit":"apple","weight":15,"price":2.00},
{"fruit":"apple","weight":10,"price":1.60},
{"fruit":"banana","weight":22,"price":3.00},
{"fruit":"banana","weight":24,"price":3.20}]
If I want to group by the "fruit" property and return mean "weight" and "price" values for each fruit, what do I do to achieve this? The end result would be something like:
aggFruitData = [{"fruit":"apple","weight":12.3333,"price":1.8},
{"fruit":"banana","weight":23,"price":3.1}]
The big hope is that the data can still be in an easy to manipulate form like JSON following the transformation. I know that SQL provides a groupby method, but I'm wondering if that is more efficient or if using native JS is more effective. Ideally, this could be something that could be scaled up, such as including another property to group by (maybe like month sold/month price was recorded). I'm open to using either vanilla JS methods or a library/framework meant to parse in this way— I just want efficiency with the project's execution
Using vanilla js:
let fruitData = [{
"fruit": "apple",
"weight": 12,
"price": 1.80
},
{
"fruit": "apple",
"weight": 15,
"price": 2.00
},
{
"fruit": "apple",
"weight": 10,
"price": 1.60
},
{
"fruit": "banana",
"weight": 22,
"price": 3.00
},
{
"fruit": "banana",
"weight": 24,
"price": 3.20
}
];
const aggregated = Object.values(fruitData.reduce((current, item) => {
if (!current[item.fruit]) {
current[item.fruit] = {
...item,
count: 1
};
} else {
const i = current[item.fruit];
i.weight = (i.weight * i.count + item.weight) / (i.count + 1);
i.price = (i.price * i.count + item.price) / (i.count + 1);
i.count++;
}
return current;
}, {})).map(({
fruit,
weight,
price
}) => ({
fruit,
weight,
price
}));
console.log(aggregated);
// [ { fruit: 'apple', weight: 12.333333333333334, price: 1.8 },
// { fruit: 'banana', weight: 23, price: 3.1 } ]
You could also use the lodash library (_.groupBy etc) functions for this. Note that the last .map is to strip out the count field only, but you may actually find it useful to have that!

Sorting teams in group by 3 variables (wins, loses and seed)

I'm working on a tournament project and was looking for good sorting method to sort teams in group by its wins, loses and seed.
Group object:
[
{
"groupId": 1,
"signature": "A",
"teams": [
"team": {
"id": 45,
"name": "Team A",
"seed": {
"id": 1,
"name": "TOP"
},
"wins": 0,
"loses": 0
},
"team": {
"id": 2,
"name": "Team B",
"seed": {
"id": 2,
"name": "HIGH"
},
"wins": 0,
"loses": 0
} etc.
Seed order looks like this: TOP -> HIGH -> MID -> LOW
I have a group A:
Team A TOP | 0:0
Team B HIGH | 0:0
Team C MID | 0:0
Team D LOW | 0:0
In this case it's easy to sort this group (using seed, obviously), but how do I sort them by wins and loses?
Let's say some matches were played already:
Case 1:
Team B HIGH | 2:0
Team A TOP | 1:1
Team D LOW | 1:1
Team C MID | 0:2
Case 2:
Team A TOP | 2:1
Team B HIGH | 2:1
Team D LOW | 1:2
Team C MID | 0:3
How to sort teams when (case 1) teamAWins = teamDWins and teamALoses = teamDLoses and then sort those two by seed? As well as in case 2, where team A has the same wins and loses amount as teamB?
Is it possible? If not, how to do it using only wins and loses?
Thanks in advice. I really need that help.
You could take an object for getting the right numerical value for seed and sort by
wins ascending,
loses descending and
seeds with the numerical value ascending.
const seeds = { TOP: 1, HIGH: 2, MID: 3, LOW: 4 };
array.sort((a, b) =>
a.wins - b.wins ||
b.loses - a.loses ||
seeds[a.seed.name] - seeds[a.seed.name]
);

How to sort just a specific part of an already sorted 2D Array depending on new values. But only if the first sorted values match in Javascript

I have the following problem:
I have an array with objects in it.
Every object has a score and a rank, like this:
[
{ "score": 20, "rank": 12 },
{ "score": 20, "rank": 7 },
{ "score": 34, "rank": 4 }
]
First of all, I sort this descending by the score and store it into a 2-dimensional array.
[34, 4]
[20, 12]
[20, 7]
But now, if there is the same score twice or more often I want those to be sorted by the rank. So whatever has the lowest rank will have a smaller index number. Resulting in:
[34, 4]
[20, 7]
[20, 12]
I really don't know how to do this, I made some approaches, but they are a way to bad to mention them.
You can check if the difference of score of two objects is 0 then return the difference of rank otherwise return difference of score
const arr = [
{ "score": 20, "rank": 12 },
{ "score": 20, "rank": 7 },
{ "score": 34, "rank": 4 }
]
let res = [...arr]
.sort((a,b) => (b.score - a.score) || (a.rank - b.rank))
.map(x => [x.score,x.rank]);
console.log(res)
Just use lodash and orderby 2 fields.
You could sort the array first and then just map over for the Object.values:
const arr = [
{ "score": 20, "rank": 12 },
{ "score": 20, "rank": 7 },
{ "score": 34, "rank": 4 }
]
let result = arr.sort((a,b) => (b.score - a.score) || (a.rank - b.rank))
.map(x => Object.values(x))
console.log(result)

Add new attribute to an existing JSON inside FOR loop

I am trying to populate bootstrap-carousel with some more detailed JSON file from database.I am adding JSON details for the sake of detailed understanding. Earlier My JSON file was :
old.json
[

"price": "Rs 100",
"href": "#mobile/1234"
},{

As you can see, I need to group my new.JSON as a group of 4 under screen attribute. For that I wrote one for loop:
mainApp.controller('MultiCarouselController', function($scope, $http) {
$scope.products = [];
$scope.Math = Math;
$http.get("/get_broad_category_products/?BroadCategory=BroadCategory3")
.success(function (response) {
$scope.products = response;
var iteratation = Math.ceil($scope.products.length/4);
var carouselJson = [];
for(var index = 0; index < iteratation; index++){ // kinda 2D matrix as [0,1],[0,2],[1,1],[1,2]
var temp = [];
for (var i = (index*4) ; i < (4*(index+1)) ; i++){
temp = temp.concat($scope.products[i]) // concatenating 4 JSON as a group
}
carouselJson.push(temp); // pushing group to new JSON
}
console.log(carouselJson);
}).error(function(){
console.log('Error happened ... ');
});
});
This angularJS controller is working completely fine, how can I add "screen" property and then add group of 4 JSONs to it
I though about doing something like:
for(var index = 0; index < iteratation; index++){ // kinda 2D matrix as [0,1],[0,2],[1,1],[1,2]
var temp = [];
for (var i = (index*4) ; i < (4*(index+1)) ; i++){
temp = temp.concat($scope.products[i]) // concatenating 4 JSON as a group
}
var jsTemp = [] ;
carouselJson.push(jsTemp.screen.push(temp)); // Errrrr.... screen property is not there in jsTemp. Now ????
}
Small help might do the trick !!!
I am not at all a fan of angular so do not know that much about how it handles JSON.
Yet JSON is just a serialized object and thus it is easy to mix and match as long as you take a few precautions.
Consider the following two json files. JSON1 is a list of products and each product has an id that is unique to that product. The second JSON JSON2 has amendments to the first JSON that have specific names "extraImages", "newItems", "updates", "newData" that we have to add to the first.
Concatenating them will not do as they are not arrays. nor can you just concat JSON strings, it does not work.
You could write a generic Object join function but that will join the two without any contextual knowledge. How does it know where to put extra images? how does it know that each product can be identified by the ID?
To join the two object we need to have pria knowledge of the data structures and the semantic meaning of each item in both files.
Anyways the two JSON files as string.
var JSON1 = `{
"item1":{
"id":100,
"desc":"a product",
"images":[
"img1.jpg",
"img2.jpg",
]
},
"item2":{
"id":101,
"desc":"another product",
"images":"img11.jpg", // this item has only one image so it just has a string
},
"item5":{
"id":105,
"desc":"a product without images",
},
}`;
var JSON2 = `{
"extraImages":[{
"id":101,
"images":[
"imageA.png",
"imageC.png"
]
}],
"newData":[{
"id":100,
"price":100,
}
],
"update":[{
"id":100,
"desc":"Best buy product",
}
],
"newItems":[{
"item3":{
"id":102,
"desc":"Just on the docks",
"images":[
"Blury11.jpg",
]
},
}
}`
So as strings JSON is kind of useless. To hard to search and find data. So JavaScript has a built in object to handle JSON called funnily enough JSON
The JSON object has two methods JSON.stringify(Obj) and JSON.parse(String)
JSON.stringify takes a basic JS data type and converts it into a
JSON string.
JSON.parse takes a json string, from whatever source and converts
it back into a JS Object, Array...
So first step convert both JSON string to objects.
var items = JSON.parse(JSON1);
var extras = JSON.parse(JSON2);
Now we have two normal JS objects that we can manipulate and join.
Lets do the images. The extra images are an array, with each item having an ID and an array of image names.
// we know the name of the object that has extra images so check if its there
// and then itterate all the items in the array
if(extras.extraImages !== undefined){ // Does this property exist
extras.extraImages.forEach(function(item){ // itterat over each item
var arrayOfImages;
// do the images exist and if so are they as an array
if(item.images !== undefined && typeof item.images === "array"){
arrayOfImages = item.images;
}
// the data structure may vary depending on what is serving the JSON
// data so you can add code to take differing types
// Now to find the matching item in the items object
// check that there is an array of images to add and tha
// the item we have has an item id we can use to find the existing item
if(arrayOfImages !== undefined && item.id !== undefined){
// continue on further down
So we have found an extra images item that has an ID and array of image names. We need to find the product if it exists that has that ID. As we will do that many times lets write a function to do that.
// pass the items object that may contain the item with the ID we are looking for
function getItemById(items,id){
for(var itemName in items){ // iterate each named item. itemName is
// just a variable it could be any var name.
// It contains a string holding each enumerable
// properties name in turn
Now check that the named property has a id you may be tempted to check if the id has the id we are looking for.
if(item[itemName].id === id){
This will throw an error if the item does not have an id and there are many reasons an enumerable property may appear that is not correctly structured. So check id exists then check its value. Unlike C/C++/C# the order of comparisons is always left to right. At the first false the if( will drop out of the () and not do any further comparison.
It is thus safe in javascript to test for the second condition as long as you test first that it will not throw ReferenceError: id is not defined
if(items[itemName].id !== undefined && items[itemName].id == id){
will never throw an error while
if(items[itemName].id == id && items[itemName].id !== undefined ){
can if id does not exist.
Anyways I diverge.
if(items[itemName].id == id && items[itemName].id !== undefined ){
// found the item with matching id
return items[itemName]; // so return it
}
}
return undefined; // nothing found that matches so return undefined
} //end of function
So back to adding extra images. We have just tested and found a extraimage item with an id and some extra image names.
// use the function to get the item
var existingItem = getItemById(items,item.id);
// check that we found one
if(existingItem !== undefined){
// check to see if it has a images
if(existingItem.images === undefined){
// no image so creat images and add an empty array
existingItem.images = []
}else // if it does is it an array
if(typeof existingItem.images !== "array"){
// not an array we will assume what is there
// is an image description of some type
// so convert the existing images object into
// an array and add the existing item into it
existingItem.images = [existingItem.images];
}
// now we are sure the images array is correct so lets
// add the new images to i
existingItem.images existingItem.images.concat( arrayOfImages);
}
}
}); // end of forEach lop
} // endo of adding new images
So wrap it all up
// code to join extraImages to items
if(extras.extraImages !== undefined){
extras.extraImages.forEach(function(item){
var arrayOfImages;
if(item.images !== undefined && typeof item.images === "array"){
arrayOfImages = item.images;
}
if(arrayOfImages !== undefined && item.id !== undefined){
var existingItem = getItemById(items,item.id);
if(existingItem !== undefined){
if(existingItem.images === undefined){
existingItem.images = []
}else
if(typeof existingItem.images !== "array"){
existingItem.images = [existingItem.images];
}
existingItem.images existingItem.images.concat( arrayOfImages);
}
}
});
}
// was going to show all the other joins for extras.update, newItems, and newData
// too much for one answer.
I see this is becoming a long answer. I'll assume that you see what is being done and how that is used to join two objects together while conforming to its semantic meaning. You should be able to write a function to do the same for your data. Convert both JSON strings to object via JSON.parse iterate the object structure obeying the semantic meaning of the data, creating or appending data as needed.
The last thing, as I assume you need the joined data as JSON string, is to convert the updated object back into a json string.
JSON1 = JSON.stringify(items); // convert the updated items object to a JSON string
Now you can pass it on back to Angular's JSON abstraction layer to do what you need.
Hope this helps. And maybe there is a way in Angular but as no one has answered with what is needed and I don't want to sully my purist ways (yucky Angular), this will give you some extra JS grounding and allow you to fix your problem.
If I am reading this correctly, you want a new property to be added to each element inside the temp array. For this you can try creating a new object from your $scope.products[i].
for(var index = 0; index < iteratation; index++){ // kinda 2D matrix as [0,1],[0,2],[1,1],[1,2]
var temp = [];
for (var i = (index*4) ; i < (4*(index+1)) ; i++){
var destObj = $scope.products[i];
destObj.screen = 'xx' // Assign your value here.
temp = temp.concat(destObj) // concatenating 4 JSON as a group
}
carouselJson.push(temp);
}
Hope this helps...
this linked helped me
JavaScript Array Push key value
changed my loop like:
var carouselJson = [];
for(var index = 0; index < iteratation; index++){ // kinda 2D matrix as [0,1],[0,2],[1,1],[1,2]
var temp = [];
var screen = ['screen'];
var obj = {};
for (var i = (index*4) ; i < (4*(index+1)) ; i++){
temp = temp.concat($scope.products[i]); // concatenating 4 JSON as a group
}
obj[screen]=temp;
carouselJson.push(obj); // pushing group to new JSON
}
$scope.mCarousels = carouselJson;

How to calculate the average value in a json data in javascript or underscore?

I know that underscore.js have max() and min() function in Collection Functions, but why does it not have avg() function?
I want to calculate the AvgValue in Math in these three student and the avgvalue which is less than 0 must be excluded. I can do it use for or foreach, but how to use underscore function or other js function like map or grep?
The json data is like this:
{ "Data": [
{ "StudentName": "SA",
"Math": {"AvgValue": 80, "MaxValue": 99, "MinValue": 60 },
"English": {"AvgValue": 76, "MaxValue": 80, "MinValue": 55 } },
{ "StudentName": "SB",
"Math": {"AvgValue": 75, "MaxValue": 88, "MinValue": 34 },
"English": {"AvgValue":98, "MaxValue": 100, "MinValue": 90 } },
{ "StudentName": "SC",
"Math": {"AvgValue": -1, "MaxValue": -1, "MinValue": -1 },
"English": {"AvgValue":-1, "MaxValue": -1, "MinValue": -1 } }
], "Total": 3, "AggregateResults": null, "Errors": null }
why does it not have avg() function?
A Javascript library author has to weigh utility of a feature against the cost it imposes on the size of the library, particularly if the library has a very general purpose.
The goal of Underscore is stated as:
It’s the answer to the question: “If I sit down in front of a blank HTML page, and want to start being productive immediately, what do I need?”
I think average is probably too easy to write and too infrequently needed to fit that description.
function mathAverage() {
function mathScores() {
return data['Data'].map(function (student) {
return student['Math']['AvgValue'];
});
}
function add(x, y) { return x + y; }
function sum(xs) { return _.reduce(xs, add); }
function average(xs) { return sum(xs) / xs.length;}
function nonnegative(x) { return x >= 0; }
return average(mathScores().filter(nonnegative));
}
You can get the array you want with the grades like this
var grades = data.Data
.map( function (s) { return s.Math.AvgValue })
.filter (function (n) {return n > 0})
// -> [ 80, 75 ]
Then use underscore or a simple for loop to calculate the average
