Overview of this book

Most data analysts use Python and pandas for data processing for the convenience and performance these libraries provide. However, JavaScript developers have always wanted to use machine learning in the browser as well. This book focuses on how Danfo.js brings data processing, analysis, and ML tools to JavaScript developers and how to make the most of this library to build data-driven applications. Starting with an overview of modern JavaScript, you’ll cover data analysis and transformation with Danfo.js and Dnotebook. The book then shows you how to load different datasets, combine and analyze them by performing operations such as handling missing values and string manipulations. You’ll also get to grips with data plotting, visualization, aggregation, and group operations by combining Danfo.js with Plotly. As you advance, you’ll create a no-code data analysis and handling system and create-react-app, react-table, react-chart, Draggable.js, and tailwindcss, and understand how to use TensorFlow.js and Danfo.js to build a recommendation system. Finally, you’ll build a Twitter analytics dashboard powered by Danfo.js, Next.js, node-nlp, and Twit.js. By the end of this app development book, you’ll be able to build and embed data analytics, visualization, and ML capabilities into any JavaScript app in server-side Node.js or the browser.

Data aggregation of grouped data

Data aggregation involves the process of gathering data and presenting it in a summary form, such as showing its statistics. Aggregation itself is the process of gathering data for statistical purposes and presenting it as a number. In this section, we look at how to perform data aggregation in Danfo.js

Here is a list of all the available aggregation methods:

  • mean(): To calculate the mean of grouped data
  • std(): To calculate the standard deviation
  • sum(): To get the sum of values in a group
  • count(): To count the total number of values per group
  • min(): To get the minimum value per group
  • max(): To get the maximum value per group

At the start of this chapter, we saw how we can call some of the aggregate methods listed previously on group data. The groupby class also contains a method called .agg, which allows us to apply different aggregate operations to different columns at the same time.

Data aggregation on single...
