COUNT_BY_ENUM

COUNT_BY_ENUM

Description

Syntax

count_by_enum(expr1, expr2, ... , exprN);

Treats the data in a column as an enumeration and counts the number of values in each enumeration. Returns the number of enumerated values for each column, and the number of non-null values versus the number of null values.

Arguments

expr1 — At least one input must be specified. The value is a column of type STRING.

Returned value

Returns a JSONArray string.

For example:

[{
  "cbe": {
    "F": 100,
    "M": 99
  },
  "notnull": 199,
  "null": 1,
  "all": 200
}, {
  "cbe": {
    "20": 10,
    "30": 5,
    "35": 1
  },
  "notnull": 16,
  "null": 184,
  "all": 200
}, {
  "cbe": {
    "China": 10,
    "United States": 9,
    "England": 20,
    "Germany": 30
  },
  "notnull": 69,
  "null": 131,
  "all": 200
}]

Description: The return value is a JSON array string and the order of the internal objects is the order of the input parameters.

• cbe: count of non-null values based on enumeration values
• notnull: number of non-null values.
• null: number of null values
• all: total number, including both null and non-null values.
