Puzzle #167
Today we have little bit messed up table with very important information. This table has information about vaccination and we need to check if patient was notified about it and if dose of vaccine was administered. Power Query challenges usually need more code so lets do it.
Load libraries and data
library(tidyverse) library(readxl) input = read_excel("Power Query/PQ_Challenge_167.xlsx", range = "A1:D14") test = read_excel("Power Query/PQ_Challenge_167.xlsx", range = "G1:K16")
Transformation
result = input %>% mutate(`Camp No` = parse_number(`Camp No`), group = cumsum(!is.na(`Camp No`)), group_name = ifelse(`Camp No` == group, Vaccine, NA_character_)) %>% fill(group_name) %>% filter(is.na(`Camp No`)) %>% select(Vaccine = group_name, Name = Vaccine, `Notification Date` = `Notification Date`, `Administration Date` = `Administration Date`) %>% pivot_wider(names_from = Name, values_from = c(`Notification Date`, `Administration Date`)) %>% pivot_longer(cols = -Vaccine, names_to = "Name", values_to = "Date") %>% separate(Name, into = c("Event", "Name"), sep = "_", remove = TRUE) %>% pivot_wider(names_from = Event, values_from = Date) %>% arrange(desc(Vaccine), Name) %>% mutate(`Camp No` = row_number() %>% as.numeric(), .by = Vaccine) %>% relocate(`Camp No`, .before = Vaccine) %>% mutate(Notified = ifelse(is.na(`Notification Date`), "No", "Yes"), Administered = ifelse(is.na(`Administration Date`), ifelse(is.na(`Notification Date`),"NA", "No"), "Yes")) %>% select(-c(4,5))
Validation
identical(result, test) # [1] TRUE
Puzzle #168
In bingo we cross drawn numbers on special card. Lets imagine that we need to make similar thing with letters. We have three stores that have or not some items, and we need to write them down alphabetically as one message (delimited by “/”). Let’s do it.
Load libraries and data
library(tidyverse) library(readxl) input = read_excel("Power Query/PQ_Challenge_168.xlsx", range = "A1:B10") test = read_excel("Power Query/PQ_Challenge_168.xlsx", range = "D1:E10")
Transformation
result = input %>% mutate(nr = row_number(), chars = as.vector(Item) %>% sort() %>% list(), .by = Store) %>% mutate(Item = map2_chr(chars, nr, ~str_c(.x, collapse = "/") %>% str_sub(1, ifelse(.y > 1, .y*2-1, 1)))) %>% select(Store, Item)
Validation
identical(result, test) # [1] TRUE
