## Introduction
daru (Data Analysis in RUby) is a library for storage, analysis, manipulation and visualization of data in Ruby.
daru makes it easy and intuitive to process data predominantly through 2 data structures:
`Daru::DataFrame` and `Daru::Vector`. Written in pure Ruby works with all ruby implementations.
Tested with MRI 2.5.1 and 2.7.1.
## daru plugin gems
- **[daru-view](https://github.com/SciRuby/daru-view)**
daru-view is for easy and interactive plotting in web application & IRuby
notebook. It can work in any Ruby web application frameworks like Rails, Sinatra, Nanoc and hopefully in others too.
Articles/Blogs, that summarize powerful features of daru-view:
* [GSoC 2017 daru-view](http://sciruby.com/blog/2017/09/01/gsoc-2017-data-visualization-using-daru-view/)
* [GSoC 2018 Progress Report](https://github.com/SciRuby/daru-view/wiki/GSoC-2018---Progress-Report)
* [HighCharts Official blog post regarding daru-view](https://www.highcharts.com/blog/post/i-am-ruby-developer-how-can-i-use-highcharts/)
- **[daru-io](https://github.com/SciRuby/daru-io)**
This gem extends support for many Import and Export methods of `Daru::DataFrame`. This gem is intended to help Rubyists who are into Data Analysis or Web Development, by serving as a general purpose conversion library that takes input in one format (say, JSON) and converts it another format (say, Avro) while also making it incredibly easy to getting started on analyzing data with daru. One can read more in [SciRuby/blog/daru-io](http://sciruby.com/blog/2017/08/29/gsoc-2017-support-to-import-export-of-more-formats/).

## Basic Usage
daru exposes two major data structures: `DataFrame` and `Vector`. The Vector is a basic 1-D structure corresponding to a labelled Array, while the `DataFrame` - daru's primary data structure - is 2-D spreadsheet-like structure for manipulating and storing data sets.
Basic DataFrame intitialization.
``` ruby
data_frame = Daru::DataFrame.new(
{
'Beer' => ['Kingfisher', 'Snow', 'Bud Light', 'Tiger Beer', 'Budweiser'],
'Gallons sold' => [500, 400, 450, 200, 250]
},
index: ['India', 'China', 'USA', 'Malaysia', 'Canada']
)
data_frame
```
Load data from CSV files.
``` ruby
df = Daru::DataFrame.from_csv('TradeoffData.csv')
```
*Basic Data Manipulation*
Selecting rows.
``` ruby
data_frame.row['USA']
```
Selecting columns.
``` ruby
data_frame['Beer']
```
A range of rows.
``` ruby
data_frame.row['India'..'USA']
```
The first 2 rows.
``` ruby
data_frame.first(2)
```
The last 2 rows.
``` ruby
data_frame.last(2)
```
Adding a new column.
``` ruby
data_frame['Gallons produced'] = [550, 500, 600, 210, 240]
```
Creating a new column based on data in other columns.
``` ruby
data_frame['Demand supply gap'] = data_frame['Gallons produced'] - data_frame['Gallons sold']
```
*Condition based selection*
Selecting countries based on the number of gallons sold in each. We use a syntax similar to that defined by [Arel](https://github.com/rails/arel), i.e. by using the `where` clause.
``` ruby
data_frame.where(data_frame['Gallons sold'].lt(300))
```
You can pass a combination of boolean operations into the `#where` method and it should work fine:
``` ruby
data_frame.where(
data_frame['Beer']
.in(['Snow', 'Kingfisher','Tiger Beer'])
.and(
data_frame['Gallons produced'].gt(520).or(data_frame['Gallons produced'].lt(250))
)
)
```
*Plotting*
Daru supports plotting of interactive graphs with [nyaplot](https://github.com/domitry/nyaplot). You can easily create a plot with the `#plot` method. Here we plot the gallons sold on the Y axis and name of the brand on the X axis in a bar graph.
``` ruby
data_frame.plot type: :bar, x: 'Beer', y: 'Gallons sold' do |plot, diagram|
plot.x_label "Beer"
plot.y_label "Gallons Sold"
plot.yrange [0,600]
plot.width 500
plot.height 400
end
```
In addition to nyaplot, daru also supports plotting out of the box with [gnuplotrb](https://github.com/SciRuby/gnuplotrb).
