Abstract
A method is performed at a computing device having a display, processors, and memory. A user inputs a natural language expression, directed to a selected data source, in a first region of a graphical user interface. The device parses the natural language expression and determines that the natural language expression specifies a data table from the data source either (i) directly by identifying the data table specified in the natural language expression or (ii) indirectly by identifying a data value specified in the natural language expression. The data value is a data value of a data field within the data table. In response, the device generates and displays, in the graphical user interface, a count of data rows of the data table, and a rendering of data rows and data columns of the data table.
