First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer program product for data analysis having instructions for performing the following steps:
- graphically plotting a number of data points on a graphical user interface using at least a first and a second variable related to each data point;
allowing a user to graphically select a subset of the number of data points;
translating the action of the user in graphically selecting the subset into a database command related to data points represented in the graphically selected subset.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer program products for data analysis. A collection of data points or data derived from a collection of data points is graphically displayed. A user is allowed to graphically select a portion of the graphic display. A database query is then constructed based upon the user'"'"'s graphical selection.
