Puzzle #195
Is it told that analysts spend big chunk of their time on cleaning data. And sometimes it is indeed a mess. We have list of orders made by people, with products, prices and amounts written “how they liked”. Sometimes concatenated by commas, colons and even ampersands. And we need to clean it up, check which vendor gave us each product, and finally get to know how much we need to pay for vendors. Let’s do it.
Loading libraries and data
library(tidyverse)
library(readxl)
path = "Power Query/PQ_Challenge_195.xlsx"
input1 = read_xlsx(path, range = "A1:C5")
input2 = read_xlsx(path, range = "A8:B11")
test = read_xlsx(path, range = "F1:G4")
Transformation
result1 = input1 %>%
mutate(across(everything(), ~str_split(.x, "\\W+"))) %>%
unnest(cols = everything()) %>%
mutate(total = as.numeric(`Unit Price`) * as.numeric(Quantity)) %>%
select(Items, total)
result2 = input2 %>%
mutate(across(everything(), ~str_split(.x, "\\W+"))) %>%
unnest(cols = everything()) %>%
mutate(part = n(), .by = Items)
result = result2 %>%
left_join(result1, by = "Items") %>%
mutate(paid_by_stockist = total/part) %>%
summarise(`Amount Paid` = sum(paid_by_stockist, na.rm = T), .by = Stockist)
Validation
identical(result, test)
# [1] TRUE
Puzzle #196
Sometimes there are documents that have to be done certain way, and there is no other possibility (I mean technically can be done, but obligation is obligation). And one of those in my experience is school class schedules and reports. And now we have something similar to both of them at once to transpose from nice table.
