I am running attached script, which I pieced together from your emails. This does not run, it produces the following error:

Error running R expression. Error message: Error in t.test.formula(arg1 ~ arg2) : grouping factor must have exactly 2 levels Calls: as.data.frame -> <Anonymous> -> t.test -> t.test.formula

In general, for aggregations, the R code needs to return a vector with a single entry for each group.

Best,

Hannes

Thanks, if you need more information from my side let me know.

Also can you answer me on the following when i use 2 functions one to retrieve Pvalue and one for the stat value: Am I doing the correct way to retrieve the stat and p-value, is the ttest get executed twice in this case? is there a more optimal way where i can retrieve both information.

Hannes, do you know if the STD_DEV is the issue there or if the queries should actually yield different results?

Hi,

Shouldn't we have the same result from running the first query and the second query? after all its an aggregate function and should return the test for each group.

I checked that monetdb had problem with running group by with statistics functions like STD_DEV, are these 2 issues related?

Thank you.

Here is the output I got from running the queries. Note, this might not be entirely representative since I did clean-up some data before loading it.

Thank you Dimitar,

I was using Squirrel to connect from my host machine to the VM.

Now when I connect using SSH-client and run the short group by query it works but the result is not similar to the union queries (PS: i also run it in the VM direclty and had the same result)

+---------+--------------------------+ | 2-Age | pval | +=========+==========================+ | [21-30] | 0.99996611809271041 | +---------+--------------------------+ 3 tuples (2.638ms)

What i am trying to achieve is to run a one sample ttest for all the age categories, and it seems that the group by is ignored.

I have also created 2 functions for the two sample ttest:

CREATE AGGREGATE "tone"."ttest2samples"(arg1 double, arg2 varchar(250)) RETURNS double LANGUAGE R { t.test(arg1 ~ arg2)$p.value }; CREATE AGGREGATE "tone"."ttest2samplesStatistic"(arg1 double, arg2 varchar(250)) RETURNS double LANGUAGE R { t.test(arg1 ~ arg2)$statistic };

select "tone"."ttest2samplesStatistic"("9-Score", "4-Gender") as "stat", "tone"."ttest2samples"("9-Score", "4-Gender") as "pvalue" from "tone"."Marketing_Loyalty_4700298d-9862-40b3-9028-b0f15dab9dea" group by "2-Age"

Am I doing the correct way to retrieve the stat and p-value, is the ttest get executed twice in this case? is there a more optimal way where i can retrieve both information. Please note that I also have the same grouping issue as before.

Do you have the same behavior, or I am missing something in the creation of these functions.

A final question, how do u drop a R function? i am trying to execute the following: drop all function "tone"."ttest2samplesStat"

Thank you.

Hannes asked me to look at your issue with the MonetDB-R VM.

I loaded the data and ran the queries you mentioned, but I did not encounter any issues. This holds for both the short and the union queries. I am also not familiar with the issue you report, nor its cause. At this time I think it is local to your instance. If you can export your db, or re-load the data, I would recommend you to create a new instance with a fresh image and try again. If you import the image as a new VM instance, you can keep your old one around as well.

Please note that during the test: - I ran as the admin (monetdb) user, as the one created default on the VM image cannot create new schemas. - I have to clean the data a bit up to load it, removing dozen lines or so. - Renamed ttest1 to ttest2 to match the queries.

Best regards, Dimitar
