Timeseries/table - Apply filter on columns

Specific domains Data handling
1

Dear Scilab community,

I’ve been using Scilab for several years, but now, I’m learning how to use the new timeseries / table functions to handle big amount of data.
I’m wondering how to get a new matrix or table from a previous table but with filtered “lines”.

An example would be clearer :slight_smile:

str=["a";"b";"c";"d"]
data=[2 3; 6 6;5 4; 1 2]
t1=table(str,data,"VariableNames",["name" "var1" "var2"])

t2=t1("name")(t1("var1")>2)
t3=t1("var1")(t1("var1")>2 & t1("var2")<5)

 t1  = 

4x3 table
   name   var1   var2
   ____   ____   ____
                     
   a      2      3   
   b      6      6   
   c      5      4   
   d      1      2

t2 : Filter on “var1” Works fine to get the name column with filtered lines in a new vector

t2  = 

  "b"
  "c"

t3 : Filter on “var1” and “var2” Works fine to get the var1 column with filtered lines in a new vector

 t3  = 

   5.

My problem :

t4=t1(#all_table#)(t1("var1")>=2)

Result expected :

t4=

4x3 table
   name   var1   var2
   ____   ____   ____
                     
   a      2      3   
   b      6      6   
   c      5      4

How to get all columns of t1 with filtered lines ? in a matrix, string matrix or better, a new table ?

I’ve tryied t1( : ) t1( : , : ) but I probably misunderstand the table objects.

Thanks a lot for your help.

Best regards,
Laurent

Hello Laurent,

First, welcome on Scilab’s Discourse forum !

In order to make your post more readable and also “copy/pasteable”, can you use code blocks markers for inline and displayed code (see Welcome to the Scilab discourse forum!).

Hello Mottelet,
Thank you for the tutorial.
Hope it is more readable now.
