Generates the maximum value of rows in each group that meet a specific condition. |
NOTE: When added to a transform, this function is applied to the current sample. If you change your sample or run the job, the computed values for this function are updated. Transforms that change the number of rows in subsequent recipe steps do not affect the values computed for this step. |
To calculate the maximum value of rows without conditionals, use the MAX function. See MAX Function.
maxif(testScores, testCount >= 3) |
Output: Returns the maximum of the testScores column when the testCount is greater than or equal to 3.
maxif(col_ref, test_expression) [group:group_col_ref] [limit:limit_count] |
