Talk:Merge and aggregate datasets: Difference between revisions
→Duplication of task goals if not task name
Line 5:
:Missing fields in the CSV files. There might be a lot of overlap, but no "exact duplication", and handling of missing fields, although not highlighted, is a significant difference I think. --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] ([[User talk:Paddy3118|talk]]) 19:40, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
::My motivation to submit this task was that I recently was working with R-script for the first time. I'm reasonably experienced with programming but had quite a hard time getting it to work.
::The examples and tutorials on stackoverflow and other places are generally either too trivial, or too specific for one exact use-case. Merging, grouping and aggregating different datasets is a very common thing I encounter a lot for my work.
::So that's why I submitted this task (after also asking here), and made sure to include the most common "hurdles", like missing records, missing values, multiple aggregator functions at once, working with date values and unorderd source files.
