PIG how to count a number of rows in alias

Question

I did something like this to count the number of rows in an alias in PIG:

logs = LOAD \'log\'
logs_w_one = foreach logs generate 1 as one;
logs_group = group         


        

Answer 1

Arnon Rotem-Gal-Oz already answered this question a while ago, but I thought some may like this slightly more concise version.

LOGS = LOAD 'log';
LOG_COUNT = FOREACH (GROUP LOGS ALL) GENERATE COUNT(LOGS);
