r - Delete rows without a full year data -


i got big data set contains monthly returns of given stock. i'd delete rows not have full year data. subset of data shown below example:

date        return  year         9/1/2009    0.71447 2009 10/1/2009   0.48417 2009 11/1/2009   0.90753 2009 12/1/2009   -0.7342 2009 1/1/2010    0.83293 2010 2/1/2010    0.18279 2010 3/1/2010    0.19416 2010 4/1/2010    0.38907 2010 5/1/2010    0.37834 2010 6/1/2010    0.6401  2010 7/1/2010    0.62079 2010 8/1/2010    0.42128 2010 9/1/2010    0.43117 2010 10/1/2010   0.42307 2010 11/1/2010   -0.1994 2010 12/1/2010   -0.2252 2010

ideally, code remove first 4 observations since don't have full year of observation.

the op has requested remove rows large data set of monthly values not make full year. although solution suggested wen seems working op suggest more robust approach.

wen's solution counts number of rows per year assuming there one row per month. more robust count number of unique months per year in case there duplicate entries in production data set. (from experience, 1 cannot careful enough when dealing production data , check assumptions).

library(data.table) # count number of unique months per year, # keep complete years, omit counts # result data.table 1 column year full_years <- dt[, uniquen(month(date)), = year][v1 == 12l, -"v1"] full_years 
   year 1: 2010 
# right join original table, rows belonging full year returned dt[full_years, on = "year"] 
          date   return year  1: 2010-01-01  0.83293 2010  2: 2010-02-01  0.18279 2010  3: 2010-03-01  0.19416 2010  4: 2010-04-01  0.38907 2010  5: 2010-05-01  0.37834 2010  6: 2010-06-01  0.64010 2010  7: 2010-07-01  0.62079 2010  8: 2010-08-01  0.42128 2010  9: 2010-09-01  0.43117 2010 10: 2010-10-01  0.42307 2010 11: 2010-11-01 -0.19940 2010 12: 2010-12-01 -0.22520 2010

note approach avoids add count column each row of potentially large data set.

the code can written more concisely as:

dt[dt[, uniquen(month(date)), = year][v1 == 12l, -"v1"], on = "year"]

it possible check data duplicate months, e.g.,

stopifnot(all(dt[, .n, = .(year, month(date))]$n == 1l))

this code counts number of occurrences each year , month , halts execution when there more one.

android - InAppBilling registering BroadcastReceiver in AndroidManifest -

i'm implementing inapp billing in android app. works well, however, i'm trying decouple broadcast receiver activity manifest. suggestion in android's trivialdrive sample: // important: dynamically register broadcast messages updated purchases. // register receiver here instead of <receiver> in manifest // because call getpurchases() @ startup, therefore can ignore // broadcasts sent while app isn't running. // note: registering listener in activity bad idea, done here // because sample. regardless, receiver must registered after // iabhelper setup, before first call getpurchases(). currently there's class extends broadcastreceiver : public class iabbroadcastreceiver extends broadcastreceiver { /** * intent action receiver should filter for. */ public static final string action = "com.android.vending.billing.purchases_updated"; private final iabbroadcastlistener mlistener; public iabbroadcastreceiver(iabbroadcastlistener listener) { m...

python Tkinter Capturing keyboard events save as one single string -

is possible store keyboard events 1 string? code below stores 1 char , prints it. card reader or bar code reader, contains collection of character/ string not 1 character @ time. goal save char pressed text variable. from tkinter import * root = tk() def key(event): text= event.char text+= event.char print ("pressed", text) def callback(event): frame.focus_set() print ("clicked at", event.x, event.y) frame = frame(root, width=100, height=100) frame.bind("<key>", key) frame.bind("<button-1>", callback) frame.pack() root.mainloop() currently, creating text variable , everytime key() function gets called, , text stores last character typed. you can define text module level variable , , use module level text inside key function - text = '' def key(event): global text text+= event.char print("pressed", text)

sql server - Why does Linq-to-SQL add unnecessary COUNT()? -

here tables: create table customer ( cid int primary key, name varchar(32) ) create table ord ( oid int primary key, cid int foreign key references customer, address varchar(20) ) here's linq-to-sql statement: var aaa = c in db.customer select new { c, o = c.ord.tolist() }; and here's inexplicable query generated linq-to-sql: select [t0].[cid] [cid], [t0].[name] [name], [t1].[oid] [oid], [t1].[cid] [cid2], [t1].[address] [address], (select count(*) [dbo].[ord] [t2] [t2].[cid] = [t0].[cid]) [value] [dbo].[customer] [t0] left outer join [dbo].[ord] [t1] on [t1].[cid] = [t0].[cid] order [t0].[cid], [t1].[oid] i want understand how rid of count(*) part. it's entirely uncalled for! linq needs count(*) in order determine number of entries returned o = c.ord.tolist() .
