Ok, so lets say I have a .csv file called flags.csv, with the following data
(Column 1)- (Column 2)
Country- Colour
Australia- Red
Australia- Red
Australia- Red
America - Red
UK - Red
Japan- Red
China - Red
Australia- White
America - White
UK - White
Japan - White
Australia -Blue
America - Blue
UK - Blue
China - Yellow
I would like to arrange this data so as to present the countries with flags of at least three colours, and the total number of colours they have. I want the output to end up in this format.
Column1-Column2-Column3-Column4-Column5
--------- Blue - Red - White - Yellow - Total
America-- 1 - 3 - 1 - 0 - 5
Australia- 1 - 1 - 1 - 0 - 3
UK------- 1 - 1 - 1 - 0 - 3
I have no idea what the formulas for manipulating the data so as it forms in this way are. Could you please give me some help?
Thank you.
Compile the data into a dictionary. From there you can extract the data you need and convert to another format if needed. - data = """Country- Colour
-
Australia- Red
-
Australia- Red
-
Australia- Red
-
America - Red
-
UK - Red
-
Japan- Red
-
China - Red
-
Australia- White
-
America - White
-
UK - White
-
Japan - White
-
Australia -Blue
-
America - Blue
-
UK - Blue
-
China - Yellow"""
-
-
dataList = data.split("\n")[1:]
-
dd = {}
-
for item in dataList:
-
country, color = [s.strip() for s in item.split("-")]
-
dd.setdefault(country, []).append(color)
-
-
print
-
print " Country: Blue Red White Yellow Total"
-
-
for country in dd:
-
print "%10s:%5s%5s%5s%5s%5s" % (country,
-
dd[country].count("Blue"),
-
dd[country].count("Red"),
-
dd[country].count("White"),
-
dd[country].count("Yellow"),
-
len(dd[country]))
The output: - >>>
-
Country: Blue Red White Yellow Total
-
Japan: 0 1 1 0 2
-
Australia: 1 3 1 0 5
-
China: 0 1 0 1 2
-
America: 1 1 1 0 3
-
UK: 1 1 1 0 3

I'm using PHP 5 on Win-98 command line (ie no web server involved)
I'm processing a large csv file and when I loop through it I can process
around 275 records per second.
However at around 6,000 records this suddenly drops off to around 40
records per second.
This is a big problem as the "live" list is over 4 million records long.
I'd break it up but this is to be a regular test so that would be messy

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
