About data points

Data points on a worksheet are the data in the body of a worksheet. Data points are the data that you want to use for analysis purposes. Typically:

• On a table worksheet, data points contain text and numeric information (e.g. customer mailing lists, product part number lists).

• On a crosstab worksheet, data points contain numeric values calculated at the intersection point of the top axis and left axis (e.g. monthly profits, sales amounts by product).
