Text Mining & Basic Calculations Supplemental Resources on Class Website
Concept Map Big Data Implementation Yields Business Intelligence Design Excel Features Data Mining Accuracy
Objectives • Define Big Data and Data Mining • Explain the Accuracy principle of Spreadsheet Design • Demonstrate Excel features that support basic spreadsheet analytics.
Facebook Users • 1.28 billion users worldwide • 802 million users login daily (up 21%) • 67% of Internet users are on FB • 50% of 18-24 year olds login when they wake up • 45-54 year old age group has grown 46%
Facebook Content • 4.5 billion likes daily (up 67%) • 30 million photos uploaded daily • 1 in 5 page views in US • 36% users post brand-related content on their walls
King of Social Media • FB accounts for 66% of social media sharing on iPhones • Users with income over $75,000 Facebook 73% Twitter 17% Pinterest 13%
Facebook & e-commerce • 10 million registered small businesses • Drives 26% of referral traffic to e-commerce sites • 20% of shoppers prefer buying thru FB vs. e-commerce website • 58% of businesses see a drop in marketing costs when moving to FB
Big Data • Data sets too large to process with traditional database technology
Data Mining Tools • software that searches through data • uses complex statistical calculations • outputs • Trends • Patterns • Correlations • Exceptions
Nestle • Nestle processes Social Media http://uk.reuters.com/article/video/idUKBRE89P07Q20121026?videoId=238680321
Import • Access data not formatted as an Excel document • File type = txt or csv
Import – Step 1 • File, Open, File type = All files http://www.lacoste.pamplin.vt.edu/web1504/resources/video/ss.html
Import – Step 2 http://www.lacoste.pamplin.vt.edu/web1504/resources/video/ss.html
Import – Step 3 • Save As File type = Excel Worksheet http://www.lacoste.pamplin.vt.edu/web1504/resources/video/ss.html
Text Mining • Search • Parse • Concatenate • SEARCH • LEFT, MID, RIGHT, LEN • &
SEARCH Function http://www.lacoste.pamplin.vt.edu/web1504/resources/video/ss.html
LEFT Function http://www.lacoste.pamplin.vt.edu/web1504/resources/video/ss.html
LEN or Length Function http://www.lacoste.pamplin.vt.edu/web1504/resources/video/ss.html
RIGHT Function http://www.lacoste.pamplin.vt.edu/web1504/resources/video/ss.html
MID Function http://www.lacoste.pamplin.vt.edu/web1504/resources/video/ss.html
Concatenate • & is the concatenate symbol • Quotes are required around constant strings of text http://www.lacoste.pamplin.vt.edu/web1504/resources/video/ss.html
Relative Cell Addressing • Relative is the default • When you copy a relative cell reference the reference will change depending on the direction and magnitude of the copy.
Formula vs. Function • Formula • created by you • = A1 + A10 • Function • keyword defined by Microsoft • =SUM(A1:D1) • Functions are more flexible than formulas
Different Results If you delete Row 5 =SUM(C3:C5) =B3+B4+B5+B6 =SUM(C3:C6)
Common Functions • SUM • AVERAGE • MIN and MAX • COUNT
Cell Reference Decisions • Is the formula entered going to be copied? • If so, which direction? • If it’s copied vertically, do you want the row references to change? If it’s copied horizontally, do you want the column references to change? • Do you want such a change to take place?
Cell Reference Decisions http://www.lacoste.pamplin.vt.edu/web1504/resources/video/ss.html
Cell Reference Example #1 =SUM(B2:D2) • Will you copy this function? • If so, which direction: vertical or horizontal? • If you copy vertically, Excel will automatically change all relative row references. Do you want those row references to change?
Cell Reference Example #2 • Which calculation needs a mixed cell reference? • Where should the $ go?
Spreadsheet Design: Accuracy • Know the order of operations. • Select the correct function or construct the correct formula. (Choose a function over a formula.) • Isolate assumptions. • Check relative and absolute cell references. • Double-check all calculations.
Isolate Assumptions • Store numbers in cells • Write equations to point to cells containing numbers
Isolate Assumption Example Assumption =E2+3 is incorrect =E2+H2 is correct
