argMaxIf
Description
The If
combinator can be applied to the argMax
function to find the value of arg
that corresponds to the maximum value of val
for rows where the condition is true,
using the argMaxIf
aggregate combinator function.
The argMaxIf
function is useful when you need to find the value associated with
the maximum value in a dataset, but only for rows that satisfy a specific
condition.
Example Usage
In this example, we'll use a sample dataset of product sales to demonstrate how
argMaxIf
works. We'll find the product name that has the highest price, but
only for products that have been sold at least 10 times.
The argMaxIf
function will return the product name that has the highest price
among all products that have been sold at least 10 times (sales_count >= 10).
In this case, it will return 'Laptop' since it has the highest price (999.99)
among the popular products.
