Feature Request: functions (sum avg, min max, free definable) in addition to count

Open Mirage10 opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

Frequency Tables are very powerfull tool - a very good concept by the way. This feature request addresses more flexibility. The cells are currently doing counting only. It would be very helpful to handover a specific function, so that the cells are not providing counts, instead they are providing function value based on the dadasets involved.

Actually, that was my original idea when the package was called Tables.jl, but I never worked on it. At this point, though, much code would be duplicated with DataFrames.jl/DataFramesMeta.jl (https://github.com/JuliaStats/DataFrames.jl/issues/894). We should find a way to share code.

@tshort Any ideas about this?

Sharing code is a good idea. The differences between DataFrames/DataFramesMeta and FreqTable are mainly different API to do similar things.
