Final: Question 1
Please download the Enron email dataset enron.zip, unzip it and then restore it using mongorestore. It should restore to a collection called “messages” in a database called “enron”. Note that this is an abbreviated version of the full corpus. There should be 120,477 documents after restore.
Inspect a few of the documents to get a basic understanding of the structure. Enron was an American corporation that engaged in widespread accounting fraud and subsequently failed.
In this dataset, each document is an email message. Like all Email messages, there is one sender but there can be multiple recipients.
Construct a query to calculate the number of messages sent by Andrew Fastow, CFO, to Jeff Skilling, the president. Andrew Fastow’s email address was andrew.fastow@enron.com. Jeff Skilling’s email was jeff.skilling@enron.com.
For reference, the number of email messages from Andrew Fastow to John Lavorato (john.lavorato@enron.com) was 1.Solution: 3
