questions with anyone, other than the instructor or TA.
2. Please include only your Student ID on the submission.
3. The only allowed material is:
a. Class notes
b. Content posted on Canvas
c. Utilize ONLY the codes we practice. Anything beyond will not get any point!
4. You are not permitted to use other online resources.
5. The physical submission is due by the next lab.
6. There will be TA office hours. See the schedule on Canvas.
ASSIGNMENT
In this assignment, we are going to practice Spark on a file named loans.csv and the file is located
in our database. In case you don’t have the file, you can get it from the dataset folder on the server.
http://server-ip/dataset/loans.csv
This dataset has information about loans distributed to poor and financially excluded people
around the world by a company called Kiva. There are a few number of columns in the dataset
and we would like to do an analysis on that by pyspark. Please answer each question and provide
a screenshot.
Part 1- Initialize Spark (5 pts)
1- Start the PySpark engine and load the file. This homework is a little bit complex and its
better that we assign more resources. Then, when assigning your engine, you can assign
all available CPU cores on your machine to the Spark to perform faster. To do that, just
simply put local[*] instead of local (look at the following screenshot). If it crashes or
doesn’t work properly, you are more than welcome to go back to the normal initialization
process. (2 pts)

2- Get to know the dataset and do a preliminary examination (for example type of columns,
summary, …) (2 pts)
3- Here, we have two identifier for the country of the loan receiver, country, and
country_code and so one is enough. Then please drop country_code. (1 pts)
Part 2- Data analysis (50 pts)
4- Find the three most loan awarded sector when the loan amount is larger than 1000. (5 pts)
5- For the top sector you found in Q4, list 6 most used activities. (5 pts)
6- Find the number of given loans per year. For that, use the year from posted_time. You
may add a new column called “year”. (5 pts)
7- Using SQL syntax, list the number of loans per sector in decreasing order where the
countries are the 3 top countries in terms of the number of received loans. (10 pts)
8- Find the top 20 countries in terms of the total loan amount they have received where the
use of the loan include the word “stock”. You may use SQL. (5 pts)
9- Do a wordcount on the “use” column. For that, consider all lower case. If you can, it’s
great to remove stopwords and then do the wordcount. It’s OK if you don’t know how to
do so. (10 pts)
10- Group the loans into 5 categories. If the loan amount is equal or larger than 50000, call it
“super large”. If less but larger or equal to 10000, call it “large”. If less but larger or
equal to 5000, call it “medium”. If less but larger or equal to 1000, call it “small”. If less,
call it “tiny”. Then, find the number of given loans to each category per gender. For
gender, only consider “male” or “female”. (10 pts)
Part 3- Feature engineering (10 pts)
11- Let’s find how many people are involved in each loan application. To find it out, look at
gender column. You can see sometimes it is one value, and sometimes more than one.
Count it for each loan and add it to the dataframe. (10 pts)

Part 4- Machine learning (35 pts)
12- Now let’s focus only on Retail, Agriculture, and Food sectors the remove the rest of the
rows (10 pts).
13- We like to predict the loan_amount based on sector, country, term_in_months, year, and
the new attribute you added in Q11 and drop the rest of the columns. (5 pts)
14- Prepare your data to do a prediction task. We are interested in predicting the loan amount
based on the rest of the features. (10 pts)
15- Perform a regression task for and find the Mean Squared Error and R-square of the model
(80% training, 20% testing) (10 pts).
