Text is the most generic data type since all data can be interpreted as a string of characters. Text includes the lower-case characters "a-z", the upper-case characters "A-Z", the digits "0-9", plus all printable, symbolic keyboard characters like "!@#$%^&*()" to list a few. For example: "Lyza", "1998", "@Work", and "3/7/2007" are text strings.

Have you ever looked at a chart or report and wondered, Where did that number come from? A feature in Lyza - called Tracing - helps you answer that question. When you trace a column, Lyza presents you with a map of the data’s lineage - the filters, formulas, manipulations and sources that document how the data came to be.

Transform is used to filter, sort, and compute new columns using formulas.
