Music video


The music video premiered worldwide on 15 November 2010 on Myspace.[8] The video features a live-action Daley in a one-man submarine, on his journey to join Gorillaz and the rest of the collaborators on Plastic Beach.[9] 2D, dressed as a sailor, can be seen on a small screen inside the submarine during the "talk to me" portions of the song, as if he is trying to contact Daley. Daley travels all around the ocean to find Plastic Beach, seeing different kinds of fish, even the Superfast Jellyfish like in the "On Melancholy Hill" music video, also featured in Stylo, and Superfast Jellyfish. He also finds the wreckage of the M. Harriet. At the end of the video, he travels around the island underwater and rises up on the surface, finally arriving at Plastic Beach. The track's title refers to Korg's Disc Rotary Electric Auto Rhythm Machine Donca Matic DA-20. Released in 1963, it was the first rhythm machine manufactured by Korg.[10] A later version of this machine can be seen built onto the right side of the contraption behind Daley.

PySpark count values by condition

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP PySpark count values by condition I have a DataFrame, a snippet here: [['u1', 1], ['u2', 0]] basically one string ('f') and either a 1 or a 0 for second element ('is_fav'). What I need to do is grouping on the first field and counting the occurrences of 1s and 0s. I was hoping to do something like num_fav = count((col("is_fav") == 1)).alias("num_fav") num_nonfav = count((col("is_fav") == 0)).alias("num_nonfav") df.groupBy("f").agg(num_fav, num_nonfav) It does not work properly, I get in both cases the same result which amounts to the count for the items in the group, so the filter (whether it is a 1 or a 0) seems to be ignored. Does this depend on how count works? count 1 Answer 1 There is no filter here. Both col("is_fav") == 1 and col("is_fav") == 0) are just boolean expressions and count doesn't really care about their value as long a
