Data: Summary (Request from Menu)¶

Summary returns a column by column detailed summary of parsed data. For more information on the returned information see Summary.

Source

The .hex key associated with the data to be summarized.

Cols

If a subset of columns is desired, specify that subset here. Default is to return a summary for all columns.

Max Ncols

The maximum number of columns to be summarized.

Max Qbins

The number of bins for quantiles. When large data are parsed, they are also binned and distributed across a cluster. When data are multimodal (or otherwise distinctly shaped), increasing the number of bins will allocate fewer data points to each bin and thus increase the accuracy of the quantiles returned. Increasing the number of bins for extremely large data can slow results depending on the memory allocated to computational tasks.
