Abstract
A method is performed at a computer. The computer retrieves a dataset from a database. The dataset includes a plurality of fields, including a first field. The computer displays a data-preparation graphical user interface, which includes a first region displaying a grid with columns corresponding to the fields and a second region that displays a sequence of operations applied to the dataset. The computer receives a user action to specify a first filter for the first field. The computer removes rows from the grid whose corresponding data values in the first column do not satisfy the first filter. The computer identifies some additional rows from the dataset, not previously displayed in the grid, whose data values for the first field satisfy the first filter, and displays the additional rows in the grid. The computer inserts an operation identifier into the third region, which identifies the first filter.
