Technically, Ask Data Anything is capable of performing projection, sub-setting, grouping and aggregation operations, providing answers for queries involving the following information:
- What? Any of the columns of your data table are considered a quantitative field over which to perform queries,
- How? How the output is to be shown. The results of the query can be retrieved on either a table, histogram or a map,
- Where? (Optional) The "in" preposition allows to restrict the search to an specific named group of items as happens for instance with continents which can be seeing as a group of countries,
- Of? (Optional) The "of" preposition allows to dive into the data, restricting the desired results to a certain set of types (concepts in the Fluent Editor sense) by searching the data in a certain column for instances (in Fluent Editor sense) of those types; we call this material sub-setting,
- By? (Optional) By which type (in Fluent Editor sense) you would like to group the results for aggregation purposes.
- When? (Optional) Queries can contain time constraints.
