Abstract
A method executes at a computing device that includes a display, one or more processors, and memory. The device displays a user interface that includes a data pane and a calculation pane. The data pane comprises data rows and data columns. Each of the data columns corresponds to a data field from a data source. The device receives a first user input to specify a grouping on a first data field. The device receives a second user input to specify an aggregation function on a second data field. In response to the first and second user inputs, for each distinct value of the first data field, the device aggregates corresponding values of the second data field according to the aggregation function. A plurality of first data rows are displayed in the calculation pane. The device saves the rows of data displayed in the calculation pane as a new data source.
