Data Statistics in Calc
Use the data statistics in Calc to perform complex data analysis
To work on a complex statistical or engineering analysis, you can save steps and time by using Calc Data Statistics. You provide the data and parameters for each analysis, and the set of tools uses the appropriate statistical or engineering functions to calculate and display the results in an output table.

Sampling
Create a table with data sampled from another table.
Choose Data - Statistics - Sampling
Sampling allows you to pick data from a source table to fill a target table. The sampling can be random or in a periodic basis.
Sampling is done row-wise. That means, the sampled data will pick the whole line of the source table and copy into a line of the target table.
Sampling Method
Random: Picks exactly Sample Size lines of the source table in a random way.
Sample size: Number of lines sampled from the source table.
Periodic: Picks lines in a pace defined by Period.
Period: the number of lines to skip periodically when sampling.
Example
The following data will be used as example of source data table for sampling:
