Puzzle #159
Today we have data about some salespeople. But they have only data about the months when they exceeded “norm” which is 100. Nonetheless those 100’s are also cost of employee so… We need to fill missing months with 100. Of course only those months that we know that person works. So again some time magic again
Load libraries and data
library(tidyverse) library(readxl) input = read_excel("Power Query/PQ_Challenge_159.xlsx", range = "A1:D19") test = read_excel("Power Query/PQ_Challenge_159.xlsx", range = "F1:I73")
Transformation
calendar = input %>% select(-c(Sales,Month)) %>% group_by(Name) %>% expand_grid(Y = unique(Year), M = 1:12) %>% distinct() %>% filter(Y == Year) %>% select(Name, Year, Month = M) %>% ungroup() result = calendar %>% left_join(input, by = c("Name", "Year", "Month")) %>% replace_na(list(Sales = 100))
Validation
identical(result, test) # [1] TRUE
Puzzle #160
Geography now! (It is a name of interesting YT channel.) But I really like Geo so, lets check it out. We have coordinates of several cities and our output should be distance matrix from each city to each city. I didn’t really check if coordinates are correct but it is not crucial to this task. Way of solving is crucial, because we need to use Pythagorean Theorem to find distnaces. Good luck!
Loading libraries and data
library(tidyverse) library(readxl) input = read_excel("Power Query/PQ_Challenge_160.xlsx", range = "A1:C8") test = read_excel("Power Query/PQ_Challenge_160.xlsx", range = "F1:M8")
Transformation
grid = crossing(city1 = input$Cities, city2 = input$Cities) %>% mutate(x1 = input$x[match(city1, input$Cities)], y1 = input$y[match(city1, input$Cities)], x2 = input$x[match(city2, input$Cities)], y2 = input$y[match(city2, input$Cities)], dist = round(sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2),2)) %>% select(Cities = city1, city2, dist) %>% pivot_wider(names_from = city2, values_from = dist)
Validation
identical(test, grid) # [1] TRUE
