[math] JDBC output to generate statistical results.

2014-08-26 Thread Kulpanowski, David
Using jdbc I am querying my database of ambulance response times. My goal is to 
take the output and process it into statistics using Jakarta Commons Math 
library. So far I am successful in querying my database and outputting the 
response times to the console. My next step is to process this output 
statistically, such as mean, medians, mode, etc. This is where I am stuck. What 
I can't figure out is how to get my database output into a format for Commons 
Math to generate a statistical analysis. In other words, I have 100,000 
ambulance responses, now I want to do more advanced statistical analysis with 
this data.
Shown below is my code.

package javaDatabase;

import java.sql.*;
import org.apache.commons.math3.stat.StatUtils;

public class javaConnect4
{
   public static void main(String[] args)
   {
 Connection conn = null;
 Statement stmt = null;
 try
 {
conn = DriverManager
  
.getConnection(jdbc:sqlserver://myServerAddress;database=myDatabase;integratedsecurity=false;user=myUser;password=myPassword);
stmt = conn.createStatement();
String strSelect = SELECT M_SecondsAtStatus FROM MManpower 
WHERE M_tTime  'august 25, 2014' AND M_Code = 'USAR';

ResultSet rset = stmt.executeQuery(strSelect);

while (rset.next())
{
   int values = rset.getInt(M_SecondsAtStatus);
   System.out.println(values);
}

// I am hoping to derive useful statistics from my 
database, such as
// the following.this uses Jakarta Commons Math
System.out.println(min:  + StatUtils.min(values));
System.out.println(max:  + StatUtils.max(values));
System.out.println(mean:  + StatUtils.mean(values));
System.out.println(product:  + StatUtils.product(values));
System.out.println(sum:  + StatUtils.sum(values));
System.out.println(variance:  + 
StatUtils.variance(values));

 } catch (SQLException ex)
 {
ex.printStackTrace();
 } finally
 {
try
{
   if (stmt != null)
 stmt.close();
   if (conn != null)
 conn.close();
} catch (SQLException ex)
{
   ex.printStackTrace();
}
 }
   }
}


An error message pops up in Eclipse and the variable values is red 
underlined; values cannot be resolved to a variable.
I am not sure how to get this to work.
I don't understand how to output my ambulance response times from the database 
into something Apache Commons math will understand.
How can I get Apache Commons math to take the output from my database and 
generate a statistical result?.


NOTES:
1.) I have cross-posted this question on StackOverflow.com but have not 
resolved the issue.
2.) I have verified that Apache Commons Math is registered in my project by 
hand coding a small array and using Commons Math to generate statistics. So 
Apache Math works and my database output goes to the console window, so it 
works also. But how do you get them to work together?
3.) I am a geographer, not a computer programmer. Believe me, you cannot make 
it simple enough. Please be explicit in your answers.

2014-08-26 Thread Benedikt Ritter
Hello David,

the problem you're encountering is a problem with scopes. A variable is
only available in the scope it was defined. In you're code the variable
values is defined within the scope of the while loop. This means, that the
variable is only defined between the curly brackets of the while loop.

Your System.out statements try to access the values variable, which is no
longer accessible, since the flow of control has already left the scope it
was definied in (by finishing the iteration over the ResultSet).

What you need to do is move the other System.out statements into the loop
like so:

while (rset.next())
{
   int values = rset.getInt(M_SecondsAtStatus);
   System.out.println(values);


  // I am hoping to derive useful statistics from
my database, such as
 // the following.this uses Jakarta Commons Math
System.out.println(min:  + StatUtils.min(values));
System.out.println(max:  + StatUtils.max(values));
System.out.println(mean:  +
StatUtils.mean(values));
System.out.println(product:  +
StatUtils.product(values));
System.out.println(sum:  + StatUtils.sum(values));
System.out.println(variance:  +
StatUtils.variance(values));
}


This way statistics will be printed for each row in the result set.

Benedikt

P.S.: Jakarta is an old name, that is not used any more. The name of the
project now is simple Apache Commons and you're using Apache Commons Math.

2014-08-26 Thread Kulpanowski, David
Thank you Mr. Ritter:

Two issues:
1.) I am attempting to obtain univariate statistics from thousands of ambulance 
responses. For example, ambulance responses (in seconds) 534, 678, 943, 194 
would be a mean of 587 seconds. Not by row, but rather as summary statistics.
2.) It appears that Apache Commons Math is needing a Double value. So I change 
it as shown below.
Note on 2) Even though I am needing summary statistics I move the lines of code 
into the loop just to see what would happen.I just want to get it to work 
because it appears the problem is the type of variable (int, double, array). 

while (rset.next())
{
double values = 
rset.getDouble(M_SecondsAtStatus);
System.out.println(values);
System.out.println(min:  + 
StatUtils.min(values));
System.out.println(max:  + 
StatUtils.max(values));
System.out.println(mean:  + 
StatUtils.mean(values));
System.out.println(product:  + 
StatUtils.product(values));
System.out.println(sum:  + 
StatUtils.sum(values));
System.out.println(variance:  + 
StatUtils.variance(values));
}

A red underline in Eclipse shows up and my mouse hovers over it. The error 
message is the following:

The method min(double[]) in the type StatUtils is not applicable for the 
arguments (double)

I then change the values variable to double[] as shown below:

double[] values = rset.getDouble(M_SecondsAtStatus);

java doesn't like this either. It gives a red underlined error message:
Type mismatch: cannot convert from double to double[]


I guess this boils down to two questions:
1.) How do I output a double[] array from database output?
2.) How do I output this double[] into a variable that Apache Commons Math will 
accept?
ok, maybe three questions:
3.) Other people are using Apache Commons Math to understand their database 
data better. How are they doing it? A lot of guys have massive mainframe 
databases filled with health care data etc. They are doing sophisticated math 
with their data. How are they doing it?

Hello,

First of all: Your DBMS might have SQL methods to calculate typical aggregates. 
This is not only easier to program, but also most likely faster and less 
resource intensive than doing it in an extra application.

But since this is the commons list: If You want to use the Commons Math 
functions you have to present the set of values (in your case as an array). And 
since there is no adapter for result sets (I think) building the array would be 
done inside the loop. The most natural thing is to use an ArrayList to append 
the values in the loop,  but then you have to convert the resulting Double[] 
into double[]. The ArrayUtils in Apache Commons Lang could do that (but if you 
need to process millions of numbers it is not the most efficient way to do it).

untested:

ArrayListDouble times = new ArrayList();
while(rset.next()) {
  times.add(Double.valueOf(rset.getDouble(T));
}
double timesArray[] = ArrayUtils.toPrimitive(times.toArray());

And then you can use this array for the Math statistics.

Gruss

Another alternative is to use a
org.apache.commons.math3.stat.descriptive.DescriptiveStatistics
object to collect all the data and then use it to compute the summary
statistics you need.  Using it alleviates the need for doing all explicit
type casting and conversion:

DescriptiveStatistics ds = new DescriptiveStatistics();
while(rset.next()) {
int observation = rset.getInt(M_SecondsAtStatus);
ds.addValue(observation);
}

System.out.println(min:  + ds.getMin());
System.out.println(max:  + ds.getMax());

Messrs. Worden and Eckenfels:

Thank you both for your kind assistance. 

Mr. Worden: 
your solution works perfectly. This is exactly what I am looking for. 

Mr. Eckenfels:
Please excuse my lack of java coding skills. I am working on it by taking on 
projects at my job. I think your solution will work and I want to use it in my 
code because I am now going to use Apache Commons Math for more sophisticated 
statistics such as regression and hypothesis testing. For example, is the mean 
average ambulance response time in Cape Coral the statistically significantly 
different from the mean average response time in Fort Myers. I anticipate 
needing your code so I need to ask for additional help:

In the final line of code Eclipse is putting a red underline under ArrayUtils. 

ArrayListDouble times = new ArrayList();
while (rset.next())
{
times.add(Double.valueOf(rset.getDouble(M_SecondsAtStatus)));
}
double timesArray[] = ArrayUtils.toPrimitive(times.toArray());

My mouse hovers over it and the message is: ArrayUtils cannot be resolved. 
Eclipse offers nine quick fixes:
1.) create class ArrayUtils.
2.) create constant ArrayUtils
3.) create local variable ArrayUtils
4.) change to ArgUtils
5.) change to Array
6.) change to Arrays
7.) create field ArrayUtils
8.) create parameter ArrayUtils
9.) fix project set up

Which one should I use to output my data in a format Apache Commons Math will 
utilize in its functions?

 Hello,

 First of all: Your DBMS might have SQL methods to calculate typical

 faster and less resource intensive than doing it in an extra application.

 But since this is the commons list: If You want to use the Commons 
 Math functions you have to present the set of values (in your case as an 
 array).
 And since there is no adapter for result sets (I think) building the 
 array would be done inside the loop. The most natural thing is to use 
 an ArrayList to append the values in the loop,  but then you have to 
 convert the resulting Double[] into double[]. The ArrayUtils in Apache 
 Commons Lang could do that (but if you need to process millions of 
 numbers it is not the most efficient way to do it).

 untested:

 ArrayListDouble times = new ArrayList();
 while(rset.next()) {
   times.add(Double.valueOf(rset.getDouble(T));
 }
 double timesArray[] = ArrayUtils.toPrimitive(times.toArray());

 And then you can use this array for the Math statistics.

 Thank you Mr. Ritter:

 Two issues:
 1.) I am attempting to obtain univariate statistics from thousands of 
 ambulance responses. For example, ambulance responses (in seconds) 
 534, 678, 943, 194 would be a mean of 587 seconds. Not by row, but 
 rather as summary statistics.
 2.) It appears that Apache Commons Math is needing a Double value. So 
 I change it as shown below.
 Note on 2) Even though I am needing summary statistics I move the 
 lines of code into the loop just to see what would happen.I just want 
 to get it to work because it appears the problem is the type of 
 variable (int, double, array).

 while (rset.next())
 {
 double values = 
 rset.getDouble(M_SecondsAtStatus);
 System.out.println(values);
 System.out.println(min:  + 
 StatUtils.min(values));
 System.out.println(max:  + 
 StatUtils.max(values));
 System.out.println(mean:  + 
 StatUtils.mean(values));
 System.out.println(product:  + 
 StatUtils.product(values));
 System.out.println(sum:  + 
 StatUtils.sum(values));
 System.out.println(variance:  +

[BCEL] Disassembling code

2014-08-26 Thread Maxim Degtyarev
Hello,

I'm currently developing an application that trace java code using JDI API
and wish be able to disassemble code being traced.

BCEL has such a functionality in the form of Utility.codeToString() method.

Problem:

The codeToString() requires ConstantPool instance while
ConstantPool(DataInputStream) constructor has package-level visibility and
no utility method to construct constant pool from byte[] provided.

Of course ConstantPool can be subclassed with descendant in same package
but this is definitely a hack.

What solution you might suggest?

I presonally tend to add new factory method constructing ConstantPool from
byte[] to the Utility.java but it is unclear to me how to submit a patch to
the BCEL.

Maxim,

You can start here: http://commons.apache.org/patches.html

Make sure you check out the trunk code and attach your patch with unit
tests to a JIRA issue.

 Messrs. Worden and Eckenfels:

 Mr. Worden:

 Mr. Eckenfels:
 Please excuse my lack of java coding skills. I am working on it by taking on 
 projects at my job. I think your solution will work and I want to use it in 
 my code because I am now going to use Apache Commons Math for more 
 sophisticated statistics such as regression and hypothesis testing. For 
 example, is the mean average ambulance response time in Cape Coral the 
 statistically significantly different from the mean average response time in 
 Fort Myers. I anticipate needing your code so I need to ask for additional 
 help:

 In the final line of code Eclipse is putting a red underline under 
 ArrayUtils. 

 ArrayListDouble times = new ArrayList();
 while (rset.next())
 {
 times.add(Double.valueOf(rset.getDouble(M_SecondsAtStatus)));
 }
 double timesArray[] = ArrayUtils.toPrimitive(times.toArray());

 My mouse hovers over it and the message is: ArrayUtils cannot be resolved. 
 Eclipse offers nine quick fixes:
 1.) create class ArrayUtils.
 2.) create constant ArrayUtils
 3.) create local variable ArrayUtils
 4.) change to ArgUtils
 5.) change to Array
 6.) change to Arrays
 7.) create field ArrayUtils
 8.) create parameter ArrayUtils
 9.) fix project set up

 Which one should I use to output my data in a format Apache Commons Math will 
 utilize in its functions?

Are you perhaps trying to use ArrayUtils from commons lang?  In that
case, you need to import that class from lang.  But as Brent
suggested, it would be easier for you in this case not to build the
list of values at all, but just add them to a DescriptiveStatistics
(or SummaryStatistics) instance that will accumulate stats based on
the stream of values that you give it using addValue(double).  The
difference between DescriptiveStatistics and SummaryStatistics is
that the first one stores the full dataset in memory, so can provide
a few more statistics.  SummaryStatistics does not store the full
data array so can be used with very large samples.

2014-08-26 Thread Bernd Eckenfels
Hello David,

if you download and include commons-lang3.jar in your classpath Eclipse
will recognize ArrayUtils and allow you to import
org.apache.commons.lang3.

Here is the Javadoc for it:
http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-lang/javadocs/api-release/index.html

Greetings
Bernd

BTW: Commons Developers: I do wonder if this would be a good feature for
dbutils. It has currently a RowProcessor, but that works either in
Object[] or needs to map to beans. Returning a simple type array for a
single column might be usefull?
