Understanding ggplot2: Plotting Only One Level of a Factor with Facet Wrap
Understanding ggplot2: Plotting Only One Level of a Factor In this article, we will delve into the world of ggplot2, a popular data visualization library in R. We will explore how to create a bar plot that isolates only one level of a factor from the x-axis. This is particularly useful when dealing with classes imbalance in factors. Introduction to ggplot2 ggplot2 is a powerful data visualization library built on top of the Grammar of Graphics, a system for creating graphics first introduced by Leland Yagoda and Ross Tyler in 2006.

Updating FTE YTD Calculation with Cumulative Sum in PostgreSQL
Calculating Cumulative Sum of Previous Month’s FTE_YTD In this section, we will explore how to update the FTE_YTD calculation to be a cumulative sum of previous month’s values based on CALENDAR_MONTH and CALENDAR_DATE. Current Calculation The current calculation is as follows: SELECT count(*) as Workdays_Month, SAFE_DIVIDE(AMOUNT, SAFE_MULTIPLY((count(*) OVER (PARTITION BY extract(year from date_trunc(CALENDAR_DATE, month)) ORDER BY CALENDAR_DATE)), 7.35)) as FTE_MONTH, count(*) OVER (PARTITION BY extract(year from date_trunc(CALENDAR_DATE, month)) ORDER BY CALENDAR_DATE) as Workdays_YTD, SAFE_DIVIDE(AMOUNT, SAFE_MULTIPLY((count(*) OVER (PARTITION BY extract(year from date_trunc(CALENDAR_DATE, month)) ORDER BY CALENDAR_DATE)), 7.
