简述
报告在大数据分析中非常重要。每个组织都必须定期提供信息以支持其决策过程。此任务通常由具有 SQL 和 ETL（提取、传输和加载）经验的数据分析师处理。
负责这项任务的团队负责将大数据分析部门产生的信息传播到组织的不同领域。
以下示例演示了数据汇总的含义。导航到文件夹bda/part1/summarize_data并在文件夹内，打开summarize_data.Rproj双击文件。然后，打开summarize_data.R脚本并查看代码，并按照提供的说明进行操作。
# Install the following packages by running the following code in R.
pkgs = c('data.table', 'ggplot2', 'nycflights13', 'reshape2')
install.packages(pkgs)
ggplot2包非常适合数据可视化。data.table包是在R. 最近的一项基准测试表明它甚至比pandas，用于类似任务的python库。
使用以下代码查看数据。此代码也可在bda/part1/summarize_data/summarize_data.Rproj文件。
library(nycflights13)
library(ggplot2)
library(data.table)
library(reshape2)
# Convert the flights data.frame to a data.table object and call it DT
DT <- as.data.table(flights)
# The data has 336776 rows and 16 columns
dim(DT)
# Take a look at the first rows
head(DT)

下面的代码有一个数据汇总的例子。
### Data Summarization
# Compute the mean arrival delay
DT[, list(mean_arrival_delay = mean(arr_delay, na.rm = TRUE))]
# mean_arrival_delay

# Now, we compute the same value but for each carrier
mean1 = DT[, list(mean_arrival_delay = mean(arr_delay, na.rm = TRUE)),
by = carrier]
print(mean1)

### Create a new variable called gain
# this is the difference between arrival delay and departure delay
DT[, gain:= arr_delay - dep_delay]
# Compute the median gain per carrier
median_gain = DT[, median(gain, na.rm = TRUE), by = carrier]
print(median_gain)
