Drawing Box-Plot without Tails Only Max and Min on the Edges of the Rectangle in Python As a data analyst, creating visualizations that effectively convey insights from your data is crucial. One such visualization is the box-plot, which displays the distribution of a dataset’s values based on their quartiles. However, sometimes you might need to customize or modify this plot to better suit your needs. In this article, we will explore how to draw a box-plot that only shows the maximum and minimum values on the edges of the rectangle, without any tails.

Converting Pandas DataFrames to Numpy Arrays with Inconsistencies Introduction When working with data in Python, it’s common to encounter situations where you need to convert data between different formats. One such situation arises when you want to convert a pandas DataFrame into a numpy array and vice versa. However, there are cases where this conversion can lead to inconsistencies, especially if the original data is not properly understood. In this article, we’ll delve into the world of pandas DataFrames and numpy arrays, exploring how to convert between them with minimal inconsistencies.

Extracting Substrings from URLs Using Base R and Regular Expressions =========================================================== As data analysts and scientists, we frequently encounter text data that requires processing before it can be used for analysis or visualization. One common task is to extract substrings from text data, such as extracting file names from a list of URLs. In this article, we will explore how to extract specific substrings defined by positioning relative to other relatively positioned characters using base R and regular expressions.

Understanding Lookup for AID Values in EID Column Using SQL Query with Outer Apply and Distinct As a technical blogger, I’m often asked to help with various SQL queries that require complex logic. Recently, I came across a question on Stack Overflow asking how to perform a lookup for AID values in the EID column for the same EUID and PID using SQL query. In this article, we’ll break down the solution step by step, exploring the use of OUTER APPLY and DISTINCT to achieve the desired result.

Advanced SQL - Filtering Values Based on Regular Expressions In this post, we’ll explore how to use regular expressions in SQL to filter values from a table based on specific patterns. We’ll also cover the REGEXP_LIKE() function and how it can be used in conjunction with other functions like TO_NUMBER() and SUM(). Introduction to Regular Expressions Regular expressions are a powerful tool for matching patterns in strings. In SQL, regular expressions can be used to filter values from tables based on specific criteria.

Understanding Switch Cases in Objective-C As a developer, working with conditional statements is an essential part of programming. In this article, we will delve into the world of switch cases in Objective-C and explore why the initial code was not behaving as expected. Introduction to Switch Cases In programming, a switch case statement is used to execute different blocks of code based on the value of a variable. The syntax for a switch case statement varies across languages, but in this article, we will focus on Objective-C.

Understanding Results for ggplot in R Shiny Introduction to R Shiny and ggplot2 R Shiny is an excellent framework for creating web applications in R that can interact with users. One of the most popular data visualization libraries in R, ggplot2, provides a powerful system for creating high-quality visualizations. However, in the given Stack Overflow post, there are some issues with the provided code that prevent it from displaying the ggplot graph as expected.

Understanding the Issue with oci_fetch_all() As a PHP developer, working with Oracle databases can be complex and challenging. Recently, I encountered an issue while fetching data from the Department table using the oci_fetch_all() function. This article aims to explain what happened, why it occurred, and how to fix it. Background In PHP-Oracle interactions, the oci_fetch_all() function is used to fetch all rows returned by a query. It returns an array of arrays, where each inner array represents a row in the result set.

Creating a New Column in a DataFrame Based on Condition from Another Column In this article, we will discuss how to create a new column in a pandas DataFrame based on the condition of another column. Introduction Many times, when working with data, it’s necessary to manipulate or transform the data into a more suitable format for analysis or processing. One common task is to create a new column that depends on values from one or more existing columns.

Understanding Data Merging and Filtering When working with datasets, it’s common to merge multiple data sources into a single dataset. This can be done using various methods, including inner joins, left joins, right joins, and full outer joins. However, after merging the datasets, you often need to filter out rows where certain columns don’t match. In this article, we’ll explore a simple way to filter out items that don’t share a common item between columns in two merged datasets.
