I'd be happy to put these together into a NOOB faq =).
Please feel free to forward me to the docs where I might have missed this.
How do I generate a simple Tuple? I have a value, say a sum, and I want to
just generate a tuple that's ('TOTAL CATS', 2L). Basically, after all is
said and done, I want my output file to look like this:
<DATE>, <COUNT of one interesting value>, <COUNT of another interesting
value>,<COUNT of a third interesting value>
I've figured out how to get the interesting values to a single TUPLE, but I
want to get it to a point where I can create a tuple and then STORE it.
I'm a fairly reasonably trained SQL developer. I think a lot of people
coming at this will be SQL conversant. It might be helpful (again, I'd help
once I know what I'm doing) to have examples that deal with CSV crunching
for SQL minded folk, no?
Something to the effect of:
Here's your CSV, here's how you break it into Tuples, here's a bunch of
examples as if this was a table and you were trying to run reports.
This way, I think it would help map to familiar territory faster.
Anyways, thanks for listening to the rambling. I'm really digging this
stuff!
