ABSTRACT:
A method and system for displaying hierarchical data. An orthogonal table structure, which includes a row structure S1, a column structure S2, and an array structure S3, is displayed. S1and S2include hierarchical levels of a first hierarchy E1and a second hierarchy E2, respectively, of linked non-numeric data items. S3is an array of cells such that every combination of a linear path through S1and a linear path through S2has an intersection disposed in the orthogonal table structure at a unique cell of S3. An assignment icon is depicted at each cell of S3, such that selection of the assignment icon at each cell results in displaying data items of a flat vector E3of non-numeric data items. One of data items of E3may be selected for insertion or replacement in each cell.
