Figure 3-13. Importing a CSV file.
9)
You will see by the black arrow in Figure 3-13 that you can import from a number of
different data sources. Note that by importing, you are bringing your data into a
RapidMiner file, rather than working with data that are already stored elsewhere. If your
data set is extremely large, it may take some time to import the data, and you should be
mindful of disk space that is available to you. As data sets grow, you may be better off
using the first (leftmost) icon to set up a remote repository in order to work with data
already stored in other areas. As previously explained, all examples in this text will be
conducted by importing CSV files that are small enough to work with quickly and easily.
Click on the Import CSV File option.
