Data grouping and analysis

Now that the data is ready and has been transformed, the next step is to see how we can group data to understand important patterns and analyze it. In this section, we will aggregate this data and analyze it.

Data grouping

In data analysis, understanding patterns within datasets is crucial for gaining insights and making informed decisions. One powerful tool that aids in this process is the group_by function in Snowpark Python. This function allows us to group data based on specific criteria, enabling us to dissect and analyze the dataset in a structured manner.

By utilizing the group_by function, we can uncover valuable insights into how data is distributed and correlated across different categories or attributes. For example, we can group sales data by product category to analyze sales trends, or group customer data by demographics to understand buying behavior.

Furthermore, the group_by function can be combined with other data manipulation...
