  2. Pivot table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pivot_table

    Pivot tables are not created automatically. For example, in Microsoft Excel one must first select the entire data in the original table and then go to the Insert tab and select "Pivot Table" (or "Pivot Chart"). The user then has the option of either inserting the pivot table into an existing sheet or creating a new sheet to house the pivot table.

  3. Count-distinct problem - Wikipedia

    Thus, the existence of duplicates does not affect the value of the extreme order statistics. There are other estimation techniques other than min/max sketches. The first paper on count-distinct estimation [7] describes the Flajolet–Martin algorithm, a bit pattern sketch. In this case, the elements are hashed into a bit vector and the sketch ...

  4. Power Pivot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Pivot

    Power Pivot expands on the standard pivot table functionality in Excel. In the Power Pivot editor, relationships can be established between multiple tables to effectively create foreign key joins. Power Pivot can scale to process very large datasets in memory, which allows users to analyze datasets that would otherwise surpass Excel's limit of ...

  5. Pivot element - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pivot_element

    The pivot or pivot element is the element of a matrix, or an array, which is selected first by an algorithm (e.g. Gaussian elimination, simplex algorithm, etc.), to do certain calculations. In the case of matrix algorithms, a pivot entry is usually required to be at least distinct from zero, and often distant from it; in this case finding this ...

  6. Pivotal quantity - Wikipedia

    Then is called a pivotal quantity (or simply a pivot). Pivotal quantities are commonly used for normalization to allow data from different data sets to be compared. It is relatively easy to construct pivots for location and scale parameters: for the former we form differences so that location cancels, for the latter ratios so that scale cancels.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Statistics

    A random variable that is a function of the random sample and of the unknown parameter, but whose probability distribution does not depend on the unknown parameter is called a pivotal quantity or pivot.
