Welcome! Today, we'll navigate Data Projection Techniques in Python! Data projection is like using a special light to make diamonds shine brighter amidst other gems, aiding their identification.
This lesson will enlighten you on the data projection concept, its implementation with Python's map()
function, and how to integrate it with filtering. Let's forge ahead!
Data projection is about applying a function to a data stream's elements, resulting in a reshaped view. A common data projection instance is selecting specific fields from databases.
Data projection in Python employs the map()
function. Here's an illustration of finding each number's square in a list of numbers:
For complex operations on data streams, Python employs lambda
functions (anonymous functions). Let's convert a list of sentences to lowercase:
