Data Query in Julia

In data analysis, one of the challenges faced by statisticians/data scientists/researchers is the data cleaning. And for most of us coming from R and Python, we enjoyed the vast resources of the documentations of our favorite packages, such as R’s dplyr and Python’s Pandas. And most of our problems often have answers already on forums such as Stack Overflow. Unfortunately, this is not the case for Julia. Luckily, we have an active community on places such as Github, Gitter and Julia Discourse all aiming to fill the gaps. Of course we like to invite more users and grow the community even bigger. This is the motivation of the project, by giving newcomers a good place to start. The project aims to provide compilation of examples for data queries in Julia. The benefit of doing this is that we can track the limitations of the current data query packages and further improve it. I encourage readers to contribute their examples for references. We’ll feature this at the Contributed section of the two data query packages, namely the DataFramesMeta.jl and the Query.jl.

The documentation proceeds by reproducing the examples in RStudio’s dplyr documentation using both DataFramesMeta.jl and Query.jl.
