Many of the Data Analysis features aren't listed in a menu on the page: they're under the\u00a0right mouse button<\/strong>. This is intentional; the grid is a complex tool, and placing each command in a toolbar would make it unreadable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

1. In the grid<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Right-clicking on a cell, a selection, or a column header opens the context menu. It contains four categories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Edition<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Control<\/strong><\/td>Effect<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/thead>
Copy<\/strong>, Paste<\/strong><\/td>Clipboard, compatible with Excel.<\/td><\/tr>
Add a line before \/ after<\/strong><\/td>As many lines as there are in the selection.<\/td><\/tr>
Add a \"Before\/After\" column<\/strong><\/td>The same goes for the columns.<\/td><\/tr>
Delete the line<\/strong>, Delete the column<\/strong><\/td>Clear selection.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Formatting and Navigation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Control<\/strong><\/td>Effect<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/thead>
Freeze the columns up to this point<\/strong><\/td>Keeps the first few columns visible as you scroll. The same command unhides them.<\/td><\/tr>
Sort from smallest to largest<\/strong> \/ from largest to smallest<\/strong><\/td>Sorts the rows by the selected column, moving the selected columns along with it.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Generation and Calculation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Control<\/strong><\/td>Effect<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/thead>
Add random values<\/strong><\/td>Fills the selection according to a specified rule\u2014useful for training and for testing an analysis.<\/td><\/tr>
Column Calculations<\/strong><\/td>Creates new columns containing statistics calculated based on the selected columns.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Data Cleaning<\/strong>\u00a0(the most useful family in everyday life):<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Control<\/strong><\/td>Effect<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/thead>
Uppercase \/ Lowercase \/ Capitalize<\/strong><\/td>Standardizes the case of a column of terms.<\/td><\/tr>
Remove outliers<\/strong><\/td>Deletes values detected as outliers in the selected columns.<\/td><\/tr>
Detect the next outlier<\/strong><\/td>Move the cursor to the next outlier. Display the message \u00abNo outliers detected\u00bb if there are no more.<\/td><\/tr>
Detect the next non-numeric value<\/strong><\/td>The same principle applies to a text value dragged into a measure column.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\ud83d\udca1 The two commands for\u00a0detection<\/strong>\u00a0are better than their \u00abdelete\u00bb counterparts. An outlier\u2014whether it\u2019s a piece of information, a data entry error, an incident, or a non-conforming part\u2014must be reviewed before a decision is made. The \u201cdetect, understand, then act\u201d approach prevents the bulk deletion of data that should have been explained.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u26a0\ufe0f Sorting reorganizes\u00a0the rows in the selected columns<\/strong>. If your columns form a single unit\u2014one row equals one item\u2014select them\u00a0all<\/strong>\u00a0before sorting; otherwise, you'll separate the measurements for the same piece and won't be able to match them up again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. In the tables for the rest of the module<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ellistat's tables\u2014projects, Gage R&R studies, various lists, and more\u2014can also be accessed by right-clicking:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • on a\u00a0column header<\/strong>\u00a0:\u00a0Sort in ascending order<\/strong>,\u00a0Sort in descending order<\/strong>,\u00a0Show \/ Hide Filters<\/strong>\u00a0; <\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • on a\u00a0editable cell<\/strong>\u00a0:\u00a0Duplicate<\/strong>, which copies the value to the desired rows.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    The \u22ee menu in these tables also contains Export CSV<\/strong> and Export to Data Analysis<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    3. Keyboard Shortcuts for the Grid<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
