Abstract
A computer system prepares data for subsequent analysis. The system displays a user interface that includes a data flow pane, a profile pane, and a data pane. The data flow pane displays a node/link diagram, including a first node representing a join between first and second data sources. When the first node is selected, the system updates the profile pane to display data value histograms for a plurality of data fields and updates the data pane to display rows from the data sources. The system also displays a join control region, including: join type selector; data field pairs that define the join between the data sources; and a join overview graphic including three portions, showing aggregate proportion of rows having an inner join, left outer join, or right outer join relationship. Selecting a portion from the join overview graphic updates the data value histograms and rows in the data pane.
