Course - Business Programming with SPL

With simple syntax and moderate learning curve, esProc enables business people who are only familiar with Excel and have never writen a single line of code to experience an automatic and efficient data processing through programming.

Why esProc

10 times easier than python

Compare with:

  • Sorting and filtering of grouped subsets
  • Filter according to cumulative value
  • Grouped subsets iteration loop
  • Sort grouped results
  • Group by specified order
  • Repeated conditional grouping
  • ...

Python

1 import pandas as pd
2 sale_file = 'E:\\txt\\SalesRecord.txt'
3 sale_info = pd.read_csv(sale_file,sep = '\t')
4 sale_info['month']=pd.to_datetime(sale_info['sale_date']).dt.month
5 sale_group = sale_info.groupby(by=['clerk_name','month'],as_index=False).sum()
6 sale_group_month = sale_group.groupby(by='month')
7 set_name = set(sale_info['clerk_name'])
8 for index,sale_g_m in sale_group_month:
9     sale_g_m = sale_g_m.sort_values(by='sale_amt',ascending = False)
10     sale_g_max_8 = sale_g_m.iloc[:8]
11     sale_g_max_8_name = sale_g_max_8['clerk_name']
12     set_name = set_name.intersection(set(sale_g_max_8_name))
13 print(set_name)

SPL

  A
1 E:\\txt\\SalesRecord.txt
2 =file(A1).import@t()
3 =A2.groups(clerk_name:name,month(sale_date):month;sum(sale_amt):amount)
4 =A3.group(month)
5 =A4.(~.sort(-amount).to(8))
6 =A5.isect(~.(name))

Looking for the Best SQL-On-File Tool.

SQL is database-based. That means files need to be first loaded into the database before we can process them with the popular query language. The data loading is not always convenient. So tools that can directly execute SQL on files were designed to avoid troubles.
