SARIMA: math, code, debug and parallel 32 tomatoes fully 4 days; including 5 tomatoes for debugging.
SARIMA: parallel: try & debug 5 tomatoes first time to implement parallel program in R. Did in 3 different ways (doParallel+foreach; parallel+, eg.parApply; techila).
Techila* platform: usage basics, try examples, implement my solution & debug 19 tomatoes 1 tomato to install; 3 tomatoes to try different official examples and to decide solution:foreach(); 5 tomatoes to learn & implement my solution using foreach(); 9 tomatoes to debug Techila’s own problems (eg. how to use lib, how to upload data in tricky way); have not tried to use Techila’s own way to upload data.

*:
[Techila] Good doc, very easy to follow the manual/tutorial to start the official examples in Google Cloud Platform, but needs some time to make own solution to run.
