Now suppose you have to analyze with another axis, in addition to the
previous two axes.
Look at the following data:
data=: 0 : 0
area model sales store
north T2 3 1001
south T2 4 2120
north T3 10 1001
north T3 5 1001
east T1 1 3012
west T3 1 3029
south T2 11 2123
north T4 2 1002
west T3 1 3030
east T4 1 3012
west T4 6 3031
)
d=: (<a:;<2) ((".&.>)@{)`[`]} }. cut;._2 data
Each model is sold at a specific store which is located at a specific
area. Each store is unique and it can't belong to a multiple of areas.
However, many transactions can happen at the same store, as you see
above in the data.
What I need is the following report(it doesn't have to be pretty --
all I need is essentially the information, not the pretty formatted
report, though):
area store T2 T3 T1 T4
---------------------------------
north 1001 3 15 0 0
1002 0 0 0 2
north total 3 15 0 2
south 2120 4 0 0 0
2123 11 0 0 0
south total 15 0 0 0
east 3012 0 0 1 1
east total 0 0 1 1
west 3029 0 1 0 0
3030 0 1 0 0
3031 0 0 0 6
west total 0 2 0 6
Now it got quite complexed, and I wonder what is the proper approach
to this kind of problems in J.
