US Patent 10417223 System and method of data wrangling

In some example embodiments, a graphical user interface (GUI) is caused to be displayed on a computing device of a user. The GUI can be configured to enable the user to submit an identification of a dataset and at least one configuration parameter. The identification of the data source and the at least one configuration parameter can be received via the GUI on the computing device. A sampling algorithm can be configured based on the at least one configuration parameter. A sample of data from the dataset can be generated using the configured sampling algorithm. The time parameter can limit an execution time of the generating of the sample of data to within a maximum amount of time indicated by the user.
