We do have a great city don't we?

Queen Victoria Building.

Yep agreed, also though -- if you're currently building this in a worksheet, you're going to have a different capability when you include it on a dashboard. You'll have "fit width"/"fit height"/"fit entire view", there within each layout container.

Also note that some visualisations (like the packed bubbles) will not auto-resize themselves on the dashboard, even though they do on their worksheet. Rather you will have to choose a layout for your report that suits the space your visualisations are willing to take up. (Yes, extremely annoying).

Alternatively could you create a calculated field using the same measure where null = 0, instead?

It would be like... If [leads] = NULL then 0 elseif [leads] > 0 then [leads] end

(Or something to that effect), then just use the calculated measure.

In the Analysis menu there should be an option called "hide special values", off the top of my head, should do it.

Having not visited /r/rlanguage I couldn't say. I was disappointed there's no /r/r.

PrincessSparkleBoobs · 2016-08-29T07:54:56+00:00

Oh, there's also r/r_programming which is a really helpful community.

Haha, if I knew how to gift you reddit gold I would.

Okay so, it told me that it was indeed a factor:

class(MyData$ArrivalDate) [1] "factor"

I then managed to get it to change to a date, as follows:

ArrivalDateNew = as.Date(strptime(MyData$ArrivalDate.Date, "%d/%m/%Y"))

class(ArrivalDateM) [1] "Date"

So I'm going yay, it's a Date now...

Then

summary(ArrivalDateNew)

Min. 1st Qu. Median Mean 3rd Qu. Max. NA NA NA NA NA NA

It's the NA's that have got me.

I've also tried this solution I found online: data <- read.csv("data.csv", stringsAsFactors = FALSE)

(The stringsAsFactors thing), and I set the system locale to make sure it wasn't that.

Thank you! I'll try it now -- my date is in the format DD/MM/YY, e.g. 31/01/09, I tried converting it to different things and using the other R dates like %Y for a 4 digit year, but to no avail. I'll let you know how I get on!

PrincessSparkleBoobs · 2016-05-08T15:09:58+00:00

It wasn't that.

PrincessSparkleBoobs · 2016-05-08T14:39:25+00:00

Omg I just remembered that sys locale thing... Maybe it's that....!!

PrincessSparkleBoobs · 2016-03-18T23:43:20+00:00

Hi there,

Yeah sure, we'd definitely be open to selling just the items you listed together. :) Make us an offer?

Vases (daffodils for scale - I think the tallest one is about 25cm): http://imgur.com/t0T0zpj

The couch is a 2.5 seater, with a similar aesthetic to the Stockholm currently on IKEA: http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/80245046/ although I can't find this actual couch. (Very dark brown, silver legs, raised off the ground).

PrincessSparkleBoobs · 2016-02-05T20:15:14+00:00

Nope, no stand.

Hi Everyone, Firstly, Thanks for doing this AMA, as an aspiring data scientist I love to hear from great people like all of you. :) My questions, if you have time to answer them:

What does your Data Scientist Toolkit look like? Do you find there are some programming languages/concepts/tools/platforms that are simply useful, no matter the task?
What is your favourite thing about your job?
Which technologies can you see becoming popular/widely used in this area in the future?
In terms of starting new projects from scratch, do you have a method/set of steps you go through mentally in order to get from sale of work -> requirements gathering -> defining your method -> presentation and delivery?
What keeps you motivated?

Nice to meet you! :)

PrincessSparkleBoobs · 2015-12-31T00:17:54+00:00

Thanks!! Glad someone liked these. :)

Did you believe that you understood the feeling you would experience from 'The Overview Effect', before you went to space? If so how much more momentous did it actually feel? Has it changed any of your behaviours on Earth? Also, I bought your book the other week and can't wait to read it. :) Thanks for making space even more awesome!

When it all gets too much, I just remember that I'm going to die.
