Grouping data
When working with an analysis, it might be beneficial to group the data in various ways to serve different purposes.
- Tags
You can group data rows exactly as you wish by attaching tags to data rows. You can tag any in-memory data table rows that you consider have something in common, and you can use the tags to easily identify the rows in different visualizations. - Lists
Lists can be used to capture knowledge about items from one or many data sources, and to transfer the information between analyses. - Creating intervals of numerical data
You can group numerical data into intervals that are then handled as categories using binning. - Grouping categories
You can group categorical values into a new categorical value. This can be useful when a data column contains categorical values that are not important to show separately, or when several entries mean almost the same thing.
