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 #3

I have reached the end of lesson 2. The final project is entitled "Data dig" where we are given a set of interesting data sets: NASA astronauts , Superbowl results , Pokemon stats , NBA players , Top movies , Top countries by population , Solar system objects by size , Marvel characters , Furniture store sales , Earned KA badges , Winston's donut logs , Card game results , and NFL draft picks . We are to pick one of those data sets and use advanced SELECT queries to discover things about the data. What sort of questions might one have about that data, like if they were using it for an app or a business idea? Here are some ideas:What are average, max, and min values in the data? What about those numbers per category in the data (using HAVING)? What ways are there to group the data values that don’t exist yet (using CASE)? What interesting ways are there to filter the data (using AND/OR)? Basically, the above given questions will serve as a guide on what we could dig from ...

SQL Journey: Blog #5

Let's do the challenge associated with the JOIN clause entitled, "Bobby's Hobbies". Instructions: Step 1 We've created a database of people and hobbies, and each row in hobbies is related to a row in persons via the person_id column. In this first step, insert one more row in persons and then one more row in hobbies that is related to the newly inserted person. I inserted the first female character that came to mind in one of my favorite romantic sitcoms. Code: INSERT INTO persons (name, age) VALUES ("Robin Scherbattsky", 32); INSERT INTO hobbies (person_id, name) VALUES (6, "reporting"); Step 2 Now, select the 2 tables with a join so that you can see each person's name next to their hobby. Code: SELECT persons.name, hobbies.name FROM persons JOIN hobbies ON persons.id = hobbies.person_id; ***A more better code is: SELECT persons.name AS person, hobbies.name AS hobby FROM persons JOIN hobbies ON persons.id = hobbies.person_id; but ...
