Power BI Journey: Blog #7



In this lesson, the focus was on bins and lists. From what I understand in the video, list is a grouping of items into one specific heading / group name while a bin is a sort of box where you put data inside this box once it is within the range of values acceptable to a specific bin. I also noticed that bins and lists must be done prior to visualization which means that all these preparations must be done in the Power Query Editor.


Here is an example of a list.


And, here is an example of a bin.


After executing the previous two windows, two additional columns will be added to our data.


Basically, these bins and lists capability is like an automatic "IF-ELSE" statement which gives the name of the bin / group when it satisfies a condition. Now, that we have prepared the data, we now proceed with the visualization.

Here is for the Customer group list:




Here is for the Data Purchased bins:

SQL Journey: Blog#10

So far, we are only "reading" from a given database or table using the SELECT command of SQL. In today's lesson, we will now start "writing" into a given database using the UPDATE and DELETE commands. Challenge: Dynamic Documents Given data: CREATE table documents (     id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT,     title TEXT,     content TEXT,     author TEXT);      INSERT INTO documents (author, title, content)     VALUES ("Puff T.M. Dragon", "Fancy Stuff", "Ceiling wax, dragon wings, etc."); INSERT INTO documents (author, title, content)     VALUES ("Puff T.M. Dragon", "Living Things", "They're located in the left ear, you know."); INSERT INTO documents (author, title, content)     VALUES ("Jackie Paper", "Pirate Recipes", "Cherry pie, apple pie, blueberry pie."); INSERT INTO documents (author, title, content)     VALUES ("Jackie Paper", "Boat Supplies...

SQL Journey: Blog #14

I am now on what Alex the Analyst would call the advanced SQL queries. First off, the Common Table Expression or CTEs. Based on what I understood in the video, CTEs is similar to a function or class in Python which you can call out. It is just how I felt when I first encountered this expression. Now, in this particular case, I tried to replicate what Alex is doing but also not copying the codes that he is using. I am just simply trying to understand what the expression that was used (which starts with WITH) and then observe how he used the said expression. This was my code. Now this code, resulted in the following error. Msg 8156, Level 16, State 1, Line 84 The column 'EmployeeID' was specified multiple times for 'CTE_Employee'. What does someone do in this day and age if we encounter something that bogs us down? We go to the internet especially to AI tools to aid us out. And, apparently, these tools will really come in handy. It stated that the error occurred because I...
